Meditations on "Recovery"

Step 11: We sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God, as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry it out.

Our old ways of thinking and behaving are being replaced as we journey with God in our new life in recovery.

Step Ten: Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong, promptly admitted it.

As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.

Step Seven: We humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.

Are you hurting? Pray. Do you feel great? Sing. Are you sick?

He (God) sent his own Son in a body like the bodies we sinners have.

Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.
