God, grant me clarity, that I might recognize…
God, grant me honesty, that I might acknowledge…
Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit…
Blessed are the powerless, for theirs is the path to recovery:
This nameless addict asks God for serenity, for courage, for wisdom
This powerless addict seeks God in extremity:
I throw myself on the mercy of my Higher Power
as I understand Them
Absolve me of my guilt that I might speak truth
God, I am arrogant. I am self-righteous. Grant me humility.
Allow me to surrender to Your will, for Yours is the power.
I am angry, God, and confused; grant me serenity,
that I might seek to understand.
Oh God, I am defiant; grant me submission to Your will.
God, I am lazy; I procrastinate. Grant me the drive to work toward my goals.
(But maybe grant me that tomorrow.)
