Recovery Meditations

Powerful people harass me without cause, but my heart trembles only at your word.

When we question our worth, we need to remember who God our Creator says we are.

Low self-esteem. No self-worth. We make a mistake and we feel like we are a failure.

So don’t be misled, my dear brothers and sisters.

We come into recovery because we are tired and worn out from the physical and emotional consequences of a lifestyle of addiction and destruction.

Creation suggests that there is an intelligent creator.

Sometimes we plan our future as if we know everything and God, who made us in His image, is not very competent at what He does.

Does God care when life is difficult for us? Without question the answer is "Yes".

All of us wrestle with our conscience in situations where we struggle.

There will always be some things that are right and good in our lives and some things that are yet to be sorted out.

All our lives God has pursued us with His love, but we were usually too self-absorbed to stop and listen to Him.

As we seek to restore a clear conscience before God we need to examine the truthfulness of our society’s values.
