Meditations on ""

Like the writer of the Psalm, we need to put our trust in the weapons that God has given us.

When we face conflict between God’s way of life and life as we have known it, we will need to abandon our flawed thinking and allow God to teach us new ways

When we live behind a mask, we are denying our true self and rejecting the person God created us to be.

Perhaps it is time for us to get to a place where we can meet with Jesus.

Some of the most welcome phrases in life and certainly in recovery circles are, "One day at a time" or "Just for today."

Dealing with anger, shame and hurtful relationships are areas vulnerable to our continued use of denial.

Often, we are not even sure that there is a God who listens and responds to us. How do we get faith to believe that God really does exist and hears and answers our prayers?

Thank God He is with us through every stage of life, and He understands our grief. He has experienced it all Himself.

In His mercy, God waits for us to turn from sin and turn our will and life over to His care. He gives us His Holy Spirit to be with us and to live in us.

Knowing the difference between good and evil and making a choice for good is not always easy or convenient but, if we ask Him, God will help us to make the right choice.

God invites us to choose for the plan He has for us to live in a loving relationship with Him and with others.

It takes great courage and endurance to love someone who is a hard-to-love person with character defects that irritate us.
