Prayers for Mental Health
A Prayer for Freedom from Addiction
Lord, you know exactly what has hold of me, and how many times I have promised myself it was the last time.
I stop pretending I can do this alone.
Take from me the craving that outlasts my willpower.
Give me today — only today — free.
Bless the people who are helping me, and the ones I have hurt.
Where I have caused damage, give me the humility to make it right.
Where I have failed, give me the courage to begin again without shame.
One day at a time, Lord. Amen.
