Recovery Meditations

God knows that it is easy for us to let fear take control of our lives.

We live in an angry noisy world. Quiet people and their opinions and needs seem to get lost in the loud voices of protest and demand.

God’s way is simple. Like little children trust the good and caring hearts of their parents so, in our new life with God in recovery, we need to believe that God is good and act accordingly.

When we first come into recovery, we tend to focus on our past behaviour and the things we have done wrong.

When we come to new life in Christ we will seek after truth in all our affairs.

Denial keeps us in slavery because we are lying to ourselves.

Denial is described as a refusal to admit the truth or reality of a situation.

Many of us come to recovery and seek help when the suffering in our life of addiction is too much to bear.

Strong people with a true sense of their identity, are often the gentlest souls around.

Life is more than just about us. God wants us to have the wonderful character qualities that He has.

How we react to situations and events in our day to day life in recovery shows the source of our strength.

How does communication with God change lives for people in recovery?
