You have the prayers Mark...part of the program. I might help to find some one
to pray for yourself...someone other than yourself. It really helps when we get
our focus on to helping others.

May the Lord bless us , be with us. May we feel His Holy presence amongst us in all that we do. Even when we are in trouble, especially when we are in trouble, May His presence be warming, consoling. And lead us into goodness and truth and keep us from straying.
Amen

Hi my dear friend,

"Let us Love you, until you can Love yourself" Praying for you, and have to say to you that it takes a lot of COURAGE TO ASK FOR HELP, have always admired you for that my friend.

The biggest hug you can imagine, close your eyes, can you feel it??

Thanks.

I'm back and I'm ok. It's funny how things look different after a good night's sleep. I was just having a rough night.

Dakota · Senior Member

very glad to hear that!

23rd Psalm is a good one I like to refer to a lot.

Yes, I've been feeling more like David in Psalm 88. Things are looking up. There is so much that I don't understand right now, but since I have no control over it, I guess I don't need to understand. Just roll with it.

Step 3 Prayer

"God, I offer myself to Thee,

to build with & to do with me as Thy 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

& Thy way of Life

May I do Thy will Always"

Step 7 Prayer

"My Creator, I am now willing

that you shall have all of me

Good & Bad & every single defect of character

that stands in the way

of my usefulness to You & my fellows

Lord, grant me strength

as I go out from here

to do Thy bidding"

Step 11 Prayer

Lord, make me a channel of thy peace;

that where there is hatred, I may bring love;

that where there is wrong, I may bring the spirit of forgiveness;

that where there is discord, I may bring harmony;

that where there is error, I may bring truth;

that where there is doubt, I may bring faith;

that where there is despair, I may bring hope;

that where there are shadows, I may bring light;

that where there is sadness, I may bring joy.

Lord, grant that I may seek rather to comfort than to be comforted;

to understand, than to be understood;

to love, than to be loved.

For it is by self-forgetting that one finds.

It is by forgiving that one is forgiven.

It is by dying that one awakens to eternal life.

Amen.

& a quick prayer at any moment! ~ "Thy will not mine be done"

I hope you can feel us with you in fellowship & hope, Mark. Along with the Serenity Prayer these are the prayers you'll find within the Steps of AA. They bring me much strength & direction in my journey & I hope they'll do for you as they do for me. With blessings, Danielle x
