A Prayer for Working with Others
I wrote this prayer to help me when I’m working with others; it’s adapted from chapter seven of Alcoholics Anonymous.
A Simple Prayer
These thoughts from the AA Big Book run through my mind nearly constantly: “Every day is a day when we must carry the vision of God’s will into all of our activities. How can I best serve Thee—Thy will (not mine) be done” (85). And, as emphasized on the same page, this is the proper use of my willpower.
My Seventh Step Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, Give me self-worth to replace my selfishness, and self-esteem to replace my self-centeredness.
Prayer After a Meeting Prior to Closing Prayer
My Lord, I thank you for again providing us the opportunity to come together, to share, to help and be helped.
One Day At A Time
Morning Surrender Prayer Lord, I surrender my lust and ask you to keep me sober from my lust today because I cannot; but by your strength, I can.
Letter to My Higher Power
My loving Father, How did I “come to believe” that You could restore me to sanity? Actually, You know that I’ve known that for a long time. I came to believe that You wanted my healing even more than I did. It was part of the faith I was taught, but it was hidden until it became real to me in a moment of insight years ago; You know how it happened.
Prayer for My Fellow SA Members
Lord God, I pray for all the fellows in SA; For everyone who gathers and begins with a prayer for serenity,
A Little Prayer
God grant me the sobriety to seek the truth from you; the faith to trust the answer; and the strength to follow through.
