Meditations on "Truth"

It's not easy, but "accepting hardship as the pathway to peace" can be life changing

The beliefs we form need to be compared with what God says is right and good and not by what is acceptable in our culture.

Only in Jesus can we truly be free from the powerful lies associated with obsessions, addictions, and dependencies, and only in the freedom that Jesus provides will our lives be happy, joyous, and free.

Will we, like Thomas, come to realize that something incredible takes place when we ask Jesus to show us who He truly is?

Do we praise God for those things that have taken place, and are we able to see and believe for those things God has promised that are yet to come?

It is God's desire that we live joyfully today. Let's follow His instructions and let the joy flow.

Experience over time is something treasured in recovery circles.

What's the real root of my anger? Do I want to get rid of anger? What am I willing to do to be free from destructive anger?

Where we go from here can be beyond all we could ask for or even imagine.

Everyday life brings challenges where we need God’s guidance to live wisely. We need help to make big and small decisions. God offers to live within us and guide us on a safe path. 

Our life with God in recovery should be one of continual learning and growing.   When our actions or attitudes conflict with God’s principles we need to realign our ways with what God’s Word says, and we need to do it sooner rather than later. 

Wise people are willling to listen to sound advice and learn. We can learn from their experience, strength, and hope because they have gained wisdom by listening to others and by following the principles for a successful life as recorded in the Bible.
