Prayers for Recovery
Serenity Prayer
God, grant me the
serenity to accept the things I cannot
change,
The courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.
OA Promise
I put my hands in yours and together we can do what we could never do
alone. No longer is there a sense of hopelessness, no longer must we
each depend upon our own unsteady willpower. We are all together now,
reaching out our hands for power and strength
greater than ours,
and as we join hands,
we find love and understanding
beyond our wildest dreams.
Step 3 Prayer
God, I offer myself to Thee to build with me and 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!
Step 7 Prayer
My Creator, I am now willing that you should have all of me, good and
bad. I pray that you now remove from me every single defect of
character which stands in the way of my usefulness to you and my
fellows. Grant me strength, as I go out from here, to do your bidding.
Amen
Step
11 Prayer
Lord, make me an instrument 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.
