A New Year of Possibilities!

2012 has arrived and with it (I hope and pray) a new attitude on my part and perhaps my wife's, as well.  I have resolved to surrender to my compulsive over-eating (which is ushering me toward insulin), get in better physical shape and get active in a Bible-based Church.  It has been a while since I have had a regular place of worship and I know it would do me a lot of good by bringing me closer to the Lord.


Romans 8:28

King James Version (KJV)

 28And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

This post is all about other places on the Web I have found that offer recovery resources worth checking out. I shall begin with a personal favorite: The Jaywalker .  This site offers all sorts of things from humorous to quite serious.  There are step guides, photos, funny things like “Rent-A-Sponsor” and links to other sites.  So please check out the Jaywalker. There are times when I can’t find the right medallion locally or need some sort of recovery-related gift or item outside of the Internet.  When this is the case, I turn to the Recovery Emporium .   I have ordered many things from them in the past with satisfaction.  Things were delivered quickly, in good shape and as ordered. If you are in Connecticut, a very valuable resource is the Area 11 Web site: www.ct-aa.org .  There you will find contact information for various committees, meeting schedules for the entire state and listings of local events by district (if somebody bothered to submit...

Waiting Patiently

Yet hope returns when I remember this one thing: The Lord's unfailing love and mercy still continue, Fresh as the morning, as sure as the sunrise. The Lord is all I have, and so in him I put my hope. The Lord is good to everyone who trusts in him, So it is best for us to wait in patience—to wait for him to save us— And it is best to learn this patience in our youth. -Lamentations 3:21-27 (GNT) It's easy to praise God and spout all sorts of nice Christian platitudes when things are going our way; yet, it is quite another to patiently wait on the LORD when things aren't so wonderful. I have found that I grow the most in His grace when I am able to find the faith to wait patiently. His thoughts and ways are so much higher than mine are (as the Prophet Isaiah says) that it is imperative I strive to keep that in mind-- at all times. Oh how I wish I had learned patience in my youth!
