July QUESTION FROM IOCC
July Question
"Sought Through Prayer "
What are some of your favorite prayers? How have the helped your recovery? Do you have a certain prayer that you always use or do you use many?
Answer one or all of these questions:
The Serenity Prayer
The Third Step Prayer
The Seventh Step Prayer
Prayer of St Francis
These are a few of my favorite Prayers and also I use Psalms 91 as a Protection Prayer and add My name in it to personalize it for me.
How has it Helped my recovery while admit I havent everyday or thanked God every day
But as I am getting better I try to say the third prayer alot to open myself up to the God of my understanding and to be accountable for myself today whether good bad or indifferent the actions I choose today are on me.
How The Serenity prayer has helped usually after I cross a line ...lets say I screwed up and went on my emotion of being angry and taking it out on others , well sometimes it has helped when I know I have to face up to it to say the serenity prayer because it helps me remember to focus on me instead of the other person so I dont blow up again.
Theres a prayer in the Big Book that really simple too when we think to use these prayers
God save me from being angry (simplest prayer but worth more than anything in the world if you are going in turbulent waters )
