Jesus is risen from the dead! Because He lives, we also shall live.

God was reaching out in love to each of us long before we knew Him.

In some recovery circles we affirm this “Life Affirmation #2” on a regular basis: My life is of great beauty and infinite value.

If we hold something in our hand and then let go of it, it will drop to the ground.

Do I truly want a life of intimacy with God in recovery?

Just for today I will seek to serve others with kindness, doing what is right, and walking humbly with God.

Your word, Lord, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens.

In our addiction we tried to cover the hurts in our past with substances or destructive behaviour because that was what seemed good at the time.

At various times in recovery, especially early on, we feel vulnerable.

An essential part of our life with God in recovery is recognizing what is harmful and decaying and what is healthy and returning to life after a time of dormancy.
