Meditations on "Powerless"

A lot of us express self-hatred in the way we look at ourselves and our life experiences.

Coming to terms with our lifestyle in addiction requires us to admit that we have zero self-control where our dependencies are involved.

Few people are more aware of their need for God’s help to restore them to sanity than recovering addicts.

God’s Word often speaks about our enemies, and these are the “enemies of our soul.

Those who make steady progress in recovery and find one day becoming one month, one year, and then one decade, are those who remain focused and give careful attention each day to what works.

Each day in recovery is another opportunity to learn and grow.

Some of us have had the experience of being homeless while we lived in our dysfunctional lifestyle.

We lost our way. That's an obvious fact. We fell into addictive and destructive lifestyles.

God won’t stop us from making bad choices. His desire for us to experience true life and love is a choice He gives us.

No matter how far away God seems, we can always call out to Him and He will always respond.

We came into recovery because we knew life wasn’t working.

One of the coping mechanisms many of us use when dealing with low-self-esteem and the humiliation of our past failures is the mask of arrogance.
