Meditations on "Relationship"

Why would we continue to live life in our own way when it obviously isn’t pleasing, not even to us?

Just for today I will be agreeable. I will not criticize, not find fault, and not try to improve or control anybody except myself.

The presents have been opened. Most of the turkey has been eaten.

Encounters with the living God inevitably bring fear.

Trust in God is foundational for trust in our relationship with others.

God wants to give us more than sobriety. He wants to give us life.

Most of the time we estimate what we and others can or cannot do based on what we know and have seen.

What are some of the “issues” we should reflect on as we gauge our moving from a self-centered life to one of a loving relationship with God and our neighbour?

If we want to experience healthy and joyful relationships with God and with others each day of our lives, we will have to be willing to change our former ways.

God blesses those who work for peace. In recovery we have the responsibility to live in ways that honour and support truth that leads to peace.

It’s important to plan carefully and be wise as we seek to make amends for our part in relationship breakdowns.

Having a loving relationship with God and praying with Him about everything we do, is the foundation for those who are seeking to live with God in recovery.
