“Through prayer and meditation, we are brought over and over again into contact with a loving Presence. We sense the healing force of God in our lives.”
– Life with Hope, second edition, page 60
My prayer:
“Divine Presence, which is in all of life, help me today to remember that you are always here. I am never alone, and your guidance is always available. How do I access your support? All I need to do is ask. Ask for an intuitive thought, or guidance, or comfort, and it will come in its own time. Being human, I don’t always remember to ask or to wait for an answer to my prayers. As an addict, I want what I want when I want it. I am grateful to be learning a new way of moving through the world with your help. Please channel your love and guidance through me so that I may be an instrument of your love, grace, and abundance. Help me remember that I am held in your loving embrace at all times. You know us better than we know ourselves. Humor us, as we trudge along the road of happy destiny.”
Final thought: Today, I seek the guidance of my Higher Power in all I do.

Written by, Terry M. In the book, “The Road Less Traveled,” Scott Peck defines love as “the will to extend one’s self for the purpose of nurturing one’s own or another’s spiritual growth.” One of the first things I remember being told when I reached these rooms was “we will love you until you learn…
