Recovery Meditations

To be suspicious can be good or bad depending on the circumstances.

God designed humans with a natural desire to pursue pleasure.

Feelings cannot always be trusted. They often point us to an incorrect perception of who we are, who God is, and what is happening in our circumstances.

We feel hurt when another’s unkind words or actions cause our self-worth to be devalued.

My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.

Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path .

God is willing, and more than able, to remove all our defects of character if we humbly ask Him.

Our pride often keeps us from asking for what we need.

Some of us slid into destructive and addictive lifestyles out of a desire to have friends and companions that made us feel like we belong.

Low self-esteem is a negative sense of one's worth or ability to cope or do well in life.

Those who make steady progress in recovery are those who remain focused and give careful attention each day to what works.

What do “people, places, and things” have to do with living well with God in recovery today?
