Dear God,
I humble my self before you and ask
for your help
so that I may realize the rewards
of recovery:
Hope instead of desperation.
Faith instead of despair.
Courage instead of fear.
Peace of mind instead of confusion.
Self-respect instead of self-contempt.
Self confidence instead of helplessness.
The respect of others instead of pity
and contempt.
A clean conscience instead of a sense
of guilt.
Real friendship instead of loneliness.
A clean pattern of life instead of
a purposeless existence.
The love and understanding of my family
instead of their doubts and fears.
The freedom of a happy life
instead of the bondage of addiction.
