Meditations on "Relationship"

When we tell someone how much we appreciate who they are or what they did for us we are lifting them up and valuing their service.

As we continue to pay attention and do what God’s word says He will reveal more of His will for our lives.

We don’t need to be told that emotional trauma is painful.

Sin whispers to the wicked, deep within their hearts.

For some of us, a lifestyle in addiction grew out of our frustration with negative events in our life.

Often in relationships where one or both parties are in some form of addiction, physical or emotional abuse exists.

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

To encourage means to inspire confidence in another.

Broken relationships are a significant issue in most relapses back into active addiction.

Living with God in recovery often presents difficult challenges such as: waiting for something we feel desperately in need of right now; not retaliating with anger when someone harms us; living with less when we could scam our way into having more; facing the consequences of revealing a difficult truth.

“I am a walking miracle” is a slogan we often hear said in recovery meetings.
