Recovery Meditations

Life with God in recovery means that we bring all of our situations before God, particularly when we feel like running away.

In steps one, two and three, we admitted that we were powerless over our dependencies and our lives were unmanageable; we came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity and, we made a decision to turn our will and our life over to the care of God as we understood Him.

What do people in recovery do when they encounter dark and difficult times?

God has now revealed to us his mysterious plan regarding Christ, a plan to fulfill his own good pleasure.

This foolish plan of God is wiser than the wisest of human plans, and God’s weakness is stronger than the greatest of human strength.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.

We can make our plans, but the LORD determines our steps.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.

The people refused to enter the pleasant land, for they wouldn’t believe his promise to care for them.

Daily living presents plenty of challenges that we must face.

Jesus said: In this world you will have trouble. But take heart!
