Meditations on "Recovery"

Step 12 encourages us to share the message of our spiritual awakening with others and to practice the principles we have learned in all our affairs.

We all know that our thoughts and emotions significantly impact our health.

Addicts tell lies. We tell ourselves we need our substance of choice in order to deal with the issues of the day.

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.
