Meditations on ""

Avoiding reality will hinder us from having the meaningful, purposeful life that we desire.

God’s Spirit makes us loving, happy, peaceful, patient, kind, good, faithful, gentle, and self-controlled. Galatians 5:22-23a CEV

The new life in recovery to which God invites us, is one of gentleness and speaking the truth in love to those around us.

God keep our land glorious and free. O Canada we stand on guard for thee.

If we find it hard to love those around us, let’s ask God to fill us with His love and goodness, so we can love others as He loves us.

Real change happens for us when we don’t just get to know God’s will but actually put it into practice.

Staying away from shortcuts will bring us to our desired destination of a meaningful new life.

As we follow God’s plan for our lives, even if some details are inconvenient in the moment, we can be assured that the building of a wonderful life is in progress.

When we fail to wait for God to act and seek an alternate way, just like in our impatience with traffic congestion, we often end up in a worse mess.

Jesus’ advice to us when we feel disgust rising in us is to find a way to love.

God’s unfailing love throughout our recovery is powerful enough to sustain us and help us overcome evil.

When stressful situations come our way, the best way forward is to make a conscious effort to turn to God and seek His help.
