Recovery Meditations

As we journey forward in our recovery, God provides wise counselors to accompany us and support us in our new way of living.

Wise counselors are God's gift to us as we journey forward in recovery with God.

The founders of AA and the 12 Steps were aware of Biblical principles and based on these, they structured the program of Alcoholics Anonymous to include counselors whom we call sponsors.

To go forward in recovery we must find new direction for our lives, new ways of responding to issues, and new guidelines for making decisions.

When we come into recovery we are strongly encouraged to quickly find a sponsor and listen to the advice of people who have been in the program for a while.

Life is more than just about us. God wants us to be like Him with all the wonderful character qualities that give life and hope to the world around us.

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?

What does prayer have to do with recovery, particularly relapse prevention?

By day the Lord directs his love, at night his song is with me— a prayer to the God of my life.

Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy because I acted in ignorance and unbelief.

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
