Meditations on "Recovery"

We talk about experiencing miracles in recovery. What is a miracle?

Disharmony in our family, addiction, poverty, loneliness or other conflicts may have been part of our story.

Is it possible that God could do something so wonderful in us today that our lives would impact history for the Kingdom of God?

Growing and being renewed day by day is part of our physical, emotional, and spiritual life.

We’ve all done things we are not proud of. Some of us feel like we’ve done more wrongs than others or have been doing wrong much longer than others.

The following words from a Psalm by King David were written after he had allowed his lust for a woman to lead him down the path of sexual immorality and murder.

We started lying a long time ago to cover up and hide from the truth.

Dishonesty is a tool we use to protect ourselves from the shame and guilt we feel when challenging moments arise.

One of the central pillars of the recovery world is the sharing of each person’s experience, strength, and hope.

After we courageously admitted that our lives were unmanageable, we then came to believe that we needed a power greater than ourselves to restore us to sanity.

Step 10 advises us to continue to take personal inventory and, when we are wrong, promptly admit it.

We are lifting others up and valuing their kindness when we tell them how much we appreciate their support.
