Recovered Podcast

The universe is everlasting.
Why do heaven and earth endure?
They do not live for themselves.
That is the reason they are everlasting.
Therefore, the sober one thinks of their needs last, yet finds their needs met with no self-effort on their part.
Their effort is in helping others; in turn, they are perfectly fulfilled.

Tonight, we talk about Living to Give.

Character defects like resentment, fear, anger, and self-pity will weigh us down in recovery. We have to let go of these shortcomings to stay happy, healthy, and focused on our program.

Sometimes we might experience these emotions in small doses and as ordinary reactions to life challenges. And that’s okay. But when we carry these emotions around with us for longer than necessary, or when they become a habit, we gamble with our sobriety.

Tonight, we talk about our Character Defects

Sobriety Is for Anyone
Our Higher Power and creation treat all equally.
Sobriety is available for anyone who will do the work.
The principles of recovery seem empty of power.
Yet, they never fail to provide when we learn to surrender.

Tonight, we talk about how Sobriety is for Anyone.

The gift of sobriety does not appear to be a gift at all - until we surrender.
Then, there is a strength beyond comprehension.
There is no fear so intense that sobriety cannot bring relief, no relationship so twisted that peace is not imaginable, no noise of life so loud that harmony is not possible.
The truth is paradoxical and hidden in plain sight.
I do not know who created the principles we use; it appears they are a part of all conceptions of a loving God.

Tonight, we talk about how Sobriety is Inexhaustible.

We do not idolize those in recovery who appear to have it all together.
Nor do we brag of our accomplishments, spiritual or material.
We use our experience to put others at ease.
We show, by example, how our lives have improved.
In turn, those desiring sobriety will choose a similar path, just as they are being shown.
Everything falls into place the more we practice this way of life.

Tonight, we talk about Living By Example.
