The recovery link is dedicated to Dr. Earl Henslin, my husband Jim and my mother Elaine, all of whom were by my side during the most challenging period of my life.

VERSE:
God,
I offer myself to Thee...
to build with me and to do with me
as Thou wilt.
Relieve me of the bondage of self,
that I may better do Thy will.
Take away my difficulties,
that victory over them may bear
witness to those I would help of
Thy Power, Thy Love,
and Thy way of life.
May I do Thy will always!
- AA, pg. 63
VERSE:
My Creator,
I am now willing that you
should have all of me, good and bad.
I pray that you now remove from me
every single defect of character which stands
in the way of my usefulness to you and my peers.
Grant me strength, as I go out from here,
to do your bidding.
AA pg. 76
VERSE:
Living one day at a time,
enjoying one moment at a time;
accepting hardship as the
pathway to peace.
Taking as He did,
the sinful world as it is,
not as I would have it;
trusting that He will make
all things right, if I will
surrender to His will.
That I may be reasonably happy
in this life and supremely happy
with Him forever in the next.
VERSE:
“When a difficult time comes,
we cannot rush through it else
we lose the opportunity for growth.”
Although at times it may seem like
you are all alone and life is barren,
know that others have walked this same path
and are available to be by your side
with understanding and support.
VERSE:
No matter what the problem may be,
I hope you know that you can lean on me.
VERSE:
When it hurts to look back,
and you are scared to look ahead,
you can look beside you
and your best friend will be there.

VERSE:
And the day came when the risk
it took to remain tight inside the bud
was more painful than the risk
it took to blossom.
-Anais Nin
VERSE:
‘If nothing ever changed,
there would be no butterflies.’
Embrace this time
of change in your life.
Know that it is temporary
with new opportunities being
created just for you.
VERSE:
Take yourself on a journey
& follow your heart.
Walk by faith not by sight.
What you find just might surprise you!

VERSE:
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not
so much seek to be consoled, as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born
to eternal life.
Prayer of Saint Francis
VERSE:
“Out of the shell of the broken heart
arises the newborn soul.”
Start where you are.
Use what you have.
Do what you can.
It will be enough.
Help is always near.
VERSE:
When you come to the edge
of all the light you have known
and are about to step out
into the darkness,
Faith is knowing one of two
things will happen...
there will be something
to stand on or you will be
taught how to fly.

VERSE:
Examine yourself & strive
to adorn it with love, humility, compassion & hope.

VERSE:
The LORD is my shepherd,
I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
he restores my soul.
Psalm 23:1-3
VERSE:
All beginnings require
that you unlock a new door.
Seek what is in you.
Announce it,
pronounce it,
produce it
and
give birth to it.

VERSE:
The cave you fear to enter

-Joseph Campbell
Ride the universal current
that enables you to flow with life.
Trust that the universe is taking you
exactly where you need to be at all times.
VERSE:
Waking into the new day,
we are there on the morning of creation
and the world is ours to name.
Out of many fragments we are called
to put back together a self again.
VERSE:
Have patience with all things
but first with yourself.
Never confuse your mistakes
with your value as a human being.
You are a perfectly valuable, creative, worthwhile person
simply because you exist.
And no amount of triumphs or tribulations can ever change that.
-St. Francis de Sales

VERSE:
Who were you
before you put yourself last?
VERSE:
God in His wisdom selected this group of men and women
to be the purveyors of his goodness. In selecting those to
bring about this phenomenon he went not to the proud, the
mighty, the famous nor the brilliant. He went, instead, to
the humble and the unfortunate, to the drunkard - the
so-called weakling of the world.

Keep ever in mind the admission you made on the day
of your profession in Alcoholics Anonymous - that you
are powerless and that it was only with your willingness
to turn your life and will unto my keeping that relief
came to you.

THINKING OF YOU
VERSE:
The gifts of heaven are often contained
within life's challenges.
- Henry Longfellow
So proud of you and all of the hard work
you have done to reach where you are today.
VERSE:
Acceptance is the answer to all my problems today.
When I am disturbed, it is because I find
some person, place, thing or situation --
some fact of my life unacceptable to me and
I can find no serenity until I accept that
person, place, thing or situation as being exactly
the way it is supposed to be at this moment.
Nothing, absolutely nothing,
happens in God’s world by mistake.
Unless I accept life completely on life’s terms,
I cannot be happy.
I need to concentrate on what needs to be
changed in me and my attitudes.
VERSE:
May all the love and joy you share
with others return tenfold to you!
Thank you for the kindness you have shown me.
