Meditations on "Recovery"

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

Homelessness has been an issue we often faced while in addiction.

Sometimes we plan our future as if we know everything and God, who made us in His image, is not very competent at what He does.

For many of us it was pain associated with our addiction that brought us to recovery.

In today’s world it is getting more and more difficult to determine what is an original document or photograph.

For you are great and do marvelous deeds; you alone are God.

Lord, you know the hopes of the helpless. Surely you will hear their cries and comfort them.

Who of us understands the reason we think and feel and react the way we do?

God created us to live forever, to be secure in His love, to live with curiosity and wonder, and to interact with other people and creation in ways that bless and bring joy to them.

In the past we may have experienced countless days of chaos in circumstances that were too much for us.

Both riches and honor come from You, and You reign over all.

God loves us and wants us to experience peace and joy in life.
