Meditations on "Recovery"

God has given us spiritual friends to accompany us on our journey in recovery.

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

God invites us to live a satisfying life by making and honoring healthy commitments.

We are unable to control all our circumstances, but we don't have to let what happens spoil our day.

When we live in depression our number-one enemy is our emotions.

The night before Jesus died he shared a meal with his friends, including one of his closest companions, Peter.

Having a loving relationship with God and praying with Him about everything we do is the foundation for those who seek to live with God in recovery.

The desire to express our love for God and our neighbour should be the motivation behind what we do each day and how we work through our daily agenda.

Early in recovery, just attending to an unfamiliar daily routine is challenging.

During the time we were in active addiction our record of living in loving and faithful ways was likely non-existent.

Many events in life seem to destroy our value and puncture holes in our self-esteem.

Denial keeps us in slavery because we are lying to ourselves.
