Meditations on "Relationship"

Everyday life in recovery will bring challenges where we need God’s guidance to live wisely.

As we come out of the isolation of addiction and move into the life God created us to live it’s good to ask ourselves, “How am I being a friend?”

When we come to God in recovery, we must humbly acknowledge that we do not know how to live well in relationship with others.

If we seek God throughout each day, He will encourage us and give us guidance to deal with those things that concern us

Letting go of defensiveness is one necessary adjustment we need to make in order to experience growth and success in our life with God in recovery.

We come to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

When we have given our will and life over to the care of God, we are assured that His eyes always watch over us and His ears are open to all our prayers.

This coming year is a fresh opportunity to go deeper in our experience of coming to believe that a Power greater than ourselves can restore us to sanity.

“Hark, now hear the angels sing, a King was born today, And man will live forevermore, because of Christmas Day”

Lying contaminates and destroys relationships and so life in God’s world is based on His spiritual sanitation system of telling the truth.

What is prayer? Simply put, prayer is talking with God.

Jesus was repeatedly sensitive to people and what they were going through, and He reached out to them with mercy and compassion.
