Meditations on "Recovery"

Trying to stay connected and maintain a close and healthy relationship with anyone else in active addiction was impossible.

When we encounter a promise of God in the Bible, do we stop and think about what God is saying?

Turning our will and life over to the care of God as we understand Him is just the beginning of our new life with God in recovery.

Life In recovery is not only about working hard. God’s plan for a satisfying and fulfilling life has always been that we would find enjoyment in daily living while always remaining vigilant about threats to our sobriety.

The writer of the following Psalm starts by calling everyone to listen to what he has to say.

Practicing an attitude of gratitude – is this just a happy little catchphrase, something to think about one day a year on the Thanksgiving holiday, or is it a way of facing each day that changes our perspective on life?

Whether or not we say words with our mouths or use our fingers on social media, we seem to be people of many words.

Many of us, especially early in recovery, find it difficult to control impulsive behaviour.

Coming out of addiction and living life in sobriety is always challenging and should be lived one day at a time.

Transition is difficult. It requires that we leave something behind and move into something new.

As we get to know the Lord Jesus our self-centered attitude begins to change and with care and compassion we become more aware of what is happening in the lives of others.

Being a “dry drunk” is a term used to describe a person whose actions and attitudes are pretty much the same as when they were drinking.
