Meditations on "Anger"

When we pray the full version of the Serenity Prayer, what are we asking God to do for us?

A lot of us would admit that we acted immaturely in our former relationships, and that we used and abused others so that we could get what we wanted when we wanted it.

Just for today I will be joyful, optimistic, and grateful.

When we pray for God’s will for us and the power to carry it out, God just doesn’t point to something unfocused in the distance.

Anger in our society is rampant. Most of us have a hard time dealing with anger.

Across recovery circles we've been exposed to the word “HALT” (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired) and its significance in our recovery.

Forgiving others is something we must take very seriously if we want to protect our sobriety.

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

When someone shares with us, we are not always the best judge of what confidences need to be held or which need to be disclosed.

In many Psalms from the Bible, we are invited to “Praise the Lord.

Whether it is a group of bullies on a school playground or an abusive partner behind closed doors, it is never right for one person to force their agenda or desires on another.

We are not always the best judge of which confidences shared with us need to be held or which need to be disclosed.
