Recovery Meditations

Good eyesight is a great gift. With our eyes we see and admire the beauty that God has put in our natural environment.

Blessed are those who live in your house. They are always praising you.

The full version of the Serenity Prayer said at most recovery gatherings contains the words, “Taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it”.

We all long to be genuine and sincere in our relationship with God and with others and yet we often find ourselves being fake and insincere.

We all need a certain amount of money to buy food and clothes, pay the rent, and get around from one place to the next.

When we are being taught something new, we often feel overwhelmed by the process we must follow.

Living life with God in recovery is a learning process.

Becoming willing to live each day in a new way is a challenge for those of us who are used to running our own lives and doing our own thing.

God’s Word often speaks about our enemies and these are the “enemies of our soul.

All of us like to be appreciated when we feel we have acted wisely or done a good job.

It’s easy for us to become discouraged and feel sorry for ourselves when life doesn’t go the way we think it should.

When we turn our will and our life over to the care of God, He immediately begins to work to help us change.
