Meditations on "Anger"

When King David, a king of Israel, did an inventory of his heart he exposed murder and adultery and lying and self-righteous pride.

Listen to the words of the wise; apply your heart to my instruction.

O people, the Lord has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.

Accepting responsibility for our behaviour is difficult for most of us even in recovery.

Even though we know that God’s way for us in our life in recovery is one of showing compassion and kindness to everyone, we may find it difficult to sustain these qualities in the challenges of everyday living.

If someone was to evaluate our daily communication with others, would they describe us as gentle or harsh?

In the areas of eating, exercise, rest, sexual activity or substance abuse, how am I choosing to honour God with my body?

How are we to live without paralyzing fear in an unsafe world?

What we think about has a powerful impact on what we do.

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

Living a life of goodness, peace and joy reflects the Kingdom of God within us.

Coming into a recovery group setting is threatening for many of us.
