Recovery Meditations

Life with God in recovery begins by admitting that on our own life is unmanageable and that we need a power greater than ourselves to restore us to sanity.

The Serenity Prayer reminds us that God is with us, God is in control, and God will help us sort out what we should take care of and what we should leave with Him.

For the past couple of days, we’ve been reflecting on the gratitude of a sinful woman who had come to Jesus and been forgiven much.

A well-known sinful woman came to a place where Jesus was eating dinner with some religious leaders of His time.

Who am I? Who do I say I am? Who do others say I am?

Spring is here bringing a new season of fresh opportunities.

Seasons change. The temperature warms up. The grass begins to grow again.

Remember your word to your servant, for you have given me hope.

God doesn’t lie. God doesn’t sugar coat the truth.

Oh, what joy for those whose disobedience is forgiven, whose sins are put out of sight.

When we have accepted the finished work of Jesus on the cross as payment for our sins, does this mean we should never reflect on guilty feelings when they arise?

So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son.
