Meditations on "Wisdom"

Everyday life in recovery will bring challenges where we need God’s guidance to live wisely.

To show discretion is to know the right thing to do in a situation and to behave in such a way that we don't cause offense. Quite the challenge.

God wants to help us know what is right and good. All we have to do is ask Him.

We may not know how to overcome all that is wrong, but today we can choose for a new way of living.

Dealing with a bad reputation is one of the most difficult things to face as we seek to live well in recovery with God.

We can’t “fight our demons” on our own but when we ask our all-powerful God to help us, He will give us so much more power to do so.

It is God’s plan that we not only know truth but believe truth, speak truth and reorder our lives so that all our actions reflect truth.

Do we recognize how much Jesus suffered so that we could be set free from the power of sin?

Recovery is a time of learning to find serenity in our healing, and blessing God while also accepting life as it is, not as we would have it.

A renewed conscience clearly indicates what is morally right and good and gives warning when we are straying into wrongdoing.

The more often we make the choice to do things God’s way, the more often we will see that it was exactly the right thing to do at that time.

Life with God in recovery requires an individual to be thorough in both their willingness to change and in their actions.
