Meditations on "Relationship"

Tonight, many children put on costumes and go door-to-door “trick-or-treating.

Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path .

After years of listening to another’s harsh and condemning words about us, it’s wonderful to have an opportunity to experience the affirmation of God and to be reminded that as we walk with Him, He is well pleased with us.

Being grateful for the things we have and for the people around us, contributes to a contented life in recovery.

When we pray the full version of the Serenity Prayer, what are we asking God to do for us?

As we have moved forward in recovery we have come to realize that we are accountable for our actions, for the behaviour that has impacted our relationships, and for the problems we created while in bondage to our addiction.

God made us for relationship with Him and with each other.

A sincere person is one who is honest, who doesn’t create false impressions, and who doesn’t operate with selfish motives.

For all of us there came a time when we could no longer avoid the realization that our lives were a mess.

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

Anger in our society is rampant. Most of us have a hard time dealing with anger.

When we tell someone how much we appreciate who they are or what they have done, we are lifting them up and valuing their service.
