Prayers of Recovery

Prayer is a vital part of any recovery.  The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous says, that "lack of power was our dilemma" and that we "needed to find a Power by which we could live."  Prayers in the evening and in the morning are part of Step work.  If one isn't praying, they are relying on their own power.  Here are some prayers that can be prayed.

Third Step Prayer

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!
