Meditations on "Acceptance"

How far is the east from the west? It is a distance we cannot travel and a destination we can never reach.

When we come into a recovery program, one of our priorities has to be sorting life according to what is true.

A humble person is grounded in a realistic view of who they are.

How far is the east from the west? It is a distance we cannot travel and a destination we can never reach.

Too many of us carry a harsh picture of God and believe He looks for ways to be displeased with us.

Life has its ups and downs and doesn’t always treat us fairly.

We all need hope. Today we are affirming the hope we will experience when what has been impossible for us to do on our own becomes possible as we reach out for help to a Power greater than ourselves.

After all the hype and preparation for Christmas we now get back to quieter days before the New Year celebration.

Many children will go to bed tonight with the thought “One more sleep until Santa Claus comes.

In the Bible we read of many festivals that the people of Israel celebrated because God had intervened on their behalf.

How do we feel when people who should recognize us don’t?

Just for today I will be unafraid, believing that as I trust in God with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding, He will lead me along a good path.
