I am grateful for
today. My sponsor has asked that I memorize a couple of lengthy prayers. I have
started to memorize them. The first is the 3rd step prayer. I have
been attending a meeting about the 3rd step so this should not be too
hard as I have been reciting it for the past couple of months.
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.
The other prayer
to memorize is the “Set-Aside” prayer.
Dear
God, please help me to set aside everything I think I know about myself, my
disease, the big book, the 12 steps, the program, the fellowship, the people in
the fellowship and all spiritual terms – especially you God so that I may have
an open mind and a new experience with all these things. Please help me see the
truth about all these things. Amen
