Recovery Meditations

As we come to the end of another year and watch the news shows that review the events of the past year, we realize how quickly some things change and yet how slowly other things leave.

From the time of creation, it has been God's plan that humans provide support and care for one another.

As we work our recovery program we find that life changes.

Troubles come, sometimes one on top of another. Pressure builds.

A common recovery saying is that “you must give it away in order to keep it”.

To enjoy a healthy and satisfying life in recovery we need to recognize our need for growth in areas of our character which have been compromised.

"With God, nothing will be impossible." This is what the angel told Mary when he announced God's intention to have her give birth to His Son, Jesus.

Encounters with our awesome God or His angels often bring fear.

The Christmas season is one that is filled with wonder.

About eight hundred years before Jesus was born in Bethlehem, God foretold His birth through communication with the prophet Isaiah.

Trust in God is foundational for trust in our relationships with others.

Lots of us are thinking about Christmas gifts – both giving and receiving them.
