Meditations on "Humility"

Our trust must be in God even when we don’t understand everything we are going through.

“We continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.” Book of AA

God knows that unless we deal with the underlying root of our habits and addictive practices, we will remain doomed for failure.

As we prayerfully review our lives with God, He will reveal where we have caused harm, and when we need to make amends with someone. He will also teach us new ways to live in relationship with Him and others.

Recovery is a time of learning to find serenity in our healing, and blessing God while also accepting life as it is, not as we would have it.

Only God, with His infinite wisdom, can give us the experience, strength, and hope we need to be successful.

We wanted change but were not always willing to humbly ask God to make those changes in us.

We ask for help in order to get rid of anything that keeps us from living in the dignity of who God says we are.

Life with God in recovery requires an individual to be thorough in both their willingness to change and in their actions.

Written into our souls, from a power that transcends time and culture, are moral laws given by God.

When we have given our will and life over to the care of God, we are assured that His eyes always watch over us and His ears are open to all our prayers.

To live well in relationship with God and others, we need to fill up on what our Creator intended, not on what we determine might work
