Meditations on "Recovery"

Those who make steady progress in recovery and find one day becoming one month, one year, and then one decade, are those who remain focused and pay careful attention each day to what works.  We call this being diligent.

My life is of great beauty and infinite value. Do I really believe this? What does God have to say about it all on my good days and bad days?

When we were powerless over our addiction how many times did people try to help us see the truth about our problem?

Sadness is one of the most common human emotions and can be difficult to deal with.

To become willing to follow God's ways is an everyday challenge for those of us who are used to running our own lives.

We live in a beautiful world created by God. Because God desired a people for Himself, He made humans in His own image.

How many of us begin a job and see it through to completion?

Stories of intolerance and prejudice air regularly on the news networks.

We will experience freedom and fulfillment in life only when God’s desires become our desires, God’s way becomes our way, and God’s Word becomes our action plan.

Telling the truth presents many challenges for individuals seeking new life in recovery.

Life has its ups and downs and does not always treat us fairly.

Recognizing and marking milestones (clean time in recovery) is a way to celebrate our sobriety and give hope to others who attend recovery meetings with us.
