Meditations on ""

God knows we are unable to find our way forward on our own and that it is impossible for us to consistently behave in healthy ways, no matter how much we want to.

While living in addiction we were emotionally unavailable to God, to others, and to ourselves.

In our addiction, many of us had our character shaped through isolation and getting our own way in whatever way we could.

How many of us have fallen to places in life where we never thought we would find ourselves?

I will take time to notice the gifts in me, in others, and in my surroundings and let the rest go.

Happy New Year! What will we do in this year 2021? Will it be the “same old same old” or will we choose to live in response to God’s love for us?

After all the hype and preparation for Christmas, especially during this very strange year of the COVID-19 pandemic, we return now to ordinary days.
