Recovery Meditations

God offers us a new life as we focus on His love for us, rather than on the events that have taken place in our lives.

A noteworthy part of living with God in recovery is the restoring of our understanding of our true value which has been firmly established by the God who created us.

The winds of time will change where we are at, but the Word of God is unfailing and will remain forever.

Control is a relationship problem which is common in addiction. Control issues in a person’s life may result from traumatic or abusive life experiences. Controlling people want life to be the way they see it rather than the way it is.

Learning how to communicate well is an essential part of this new life with God in recovery that we are now living.

God wants us to have a rich and satisfying life. The evil one seeks to harm and destroy us as effectively as he can. Living free from sexual sin is a wonderful way to enter the life of dignity, respect, and blessing that God has prepared for us.

When we begin the recovery process we are often overwhelmed by the guilt and shame of the mess we have made of our lives. Being confident in our minds that we can live a positive and joyful life is half the battle.

We are instructed to work hard, to give our work the best effort we can, and to be contented with what we have.

In sobriety, we begin to be aware of how much spiritual poison we have allowed to build up in our hearts and minds. The most toxic spiritual poison we have fed ourselves is the belief that we know how to live life on our own without God.

We need to encourage ourselves with the truth of God’s Word rather than allow feelings of inadequacy and lingering guilt to control us.

God promises to supply what we need to overcome temptation. He will empower us to keep on the right path even during difficult times of temptation.

God’s will and God’s ways work every time and will bring us peace and stability.
