Meditations on "Anger"

An important part of recovery is coming to an honest view of what happened in our relationships.

Jesus is born – born for us. The God who created heaven and earth put on flesh and was born in humble circumstances so we could experience love and find hope for a relationship with God that lasts forever.

The celebration of Christmas encourages us to give gifts to those we care about.

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

Addiction is a disease of isolation. That’s not news to those of us who have spent time there.

As humans, we long for security in many forms; security within our own family, security about who we are inside our own heads, security of our position within any group we are a part of, security from any type of threat to our well-being, and security from anything else we may consider a threat to our lives.

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

Whether we speak words with our mouths or use our fingers to type them on social media, we seem to be people of many words.

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

Being a “dry drunk” is a term used to describe a person whose actions and attitude are pretty much the same as they were when they were drinking.

It is interesting to live in a time when people seem more willing to rewrite history than to learn from it.
