Meditations on "Anger"

Christmas is a family holiday. People make a special effort to return home and be with family at Christmastime.

Those who have been ransomed by the Lord will return.

The Christmas story reminds us that we don't have to clean up our lives before we make room for Jesus to enter our hearts.

The practice of gossip is extremely destructive to our growth in living with God in recovery.

Coming into a recovery group setting is threatening for many of us.

The hustle and bustle of shopping and Christmas events is in full swing.

God knows that it is easy for us to let fear take control of our lives.

Light and darkness just don’t mix. A safe and stable life in recovery requires us to leave behind shady living and enter fully into the life of goodness which God desires for us.

Accepting responsibility for our behaviour is difficult for most of us even in recovery.

Yesterday we reflected on one area of our past that keeps us living in the shadows.

In peace I will both lie down and sleep, For You alone, O Lord, make me to dwell in safety.

Living a life of goodness, peace and joy reflects the Kingdom of God within us.
