Meditations on "Recovery"

In the face of mockery and false accusation, the hardest things to stay focused on are our identity, and our purpose in life.

Today is a day to honour fathers. Some of us are fathers.

In Step Eleven, through prayer and meditation, we seek to improve our conscious contact with God, praying only for knowledge of His will for us, and the power to carry it out.

Keeping a record of wrongs often leads to the winding path of relapse and active addiction.

When we look at people who appear to have it all together, we envy them, especially when our life is not harmonious or as complete as we would like it to be.

E Addiction for many of us focused on trying to find happiness in all the wrong places and things.

It’s a useful practice to take regular inventory of our lives.

We say we want to be followers of Jesus and have turned our will and our life over to His care.

All of us are vulnerable to relapse when we are feeling lonely, frustrated or dissatisfied with life.

We have all experienced the ups and downs of recovery.

Honesty, balance, and realism are essential tools to keep at hand as we sort out and rebuild relationships.

When we came to admit that our lives were unmanageable, we knew that many decisions needed to be made if we were to choose for the road to recovery.
