Meditations on "Recovery"

Jesus told the story of two men who went to church to pray.

Success in life and in recovery results from giving priority to learning and obeying God’s word.

It’s easy for us to become discouraged and feel sorry for ourselves when life doesn’t go the way we think it should.

Just for today I will be agreeable. I will not criticize, not find fault, and not try to improve or control anybody except myself.

When we get rid of something bad in our lives, we need to fill the vacancy with something good.

When we begin to reflect on our destructive and addictive lifestyle, we recognize the dumb choices we have chosen to make.

God created the heavens and the earth and set them to run according to His established laws and boundaries.

From the time of creation, it has been God's plan that humans provide support and care for one another.

As we work our recovery program we find that life changes.

A common recovery saying is that “you must give it away in order to keep it”.

To enjoy a healthy and satisfying life in recovery we need to recognize our need for growth in areas of our character which have been compromised.

The Christmas season is one that is filled with wonder.
