Meditations on "Truth"

Doughnuts have both dough and holes when they are first cut, but they don’t look good or taste good until they’ve been fried in hot oil or baked in a hot oven to enhance their flavour.

We can dare to be optimistic about life and our recovery because God’s unconditional love will strengthen and build us up.

When making decisions in life, God tells us to first seek His counsel and then do what He says is right.

To be “relapse proof” we must be fully surrendered to a life that prioritizes God’s will in all we think, say and do.

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

Growing up I remember hearing the cute Christmas song, "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth, my two front teeth, see my two front teeth!

Christmas lights brighten the dark evenings of December and are a reminder to us that no matter how dark this season may be, the coming of Jesus into the world brought light and hope and joy.

In this season of the year, we prepare our hearts for the annual celebration of Christ’s birth.

What sorrow for those who drag their sins behind them with ropes made of lies, who drag wickedness behind them like a cart!

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

God made our bodies to be a home for His Spirit. It goes against the “wisdom of the world” to acknowledge the truth that our bodies are not our own but belong to God.

Taking a regular inventory helps us maintain a balanced view of our progress.
