STEP

CAME
TO BELIEVE that a Power
greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. |

"Our
description of the alcoholic (addict), the chapter to the agnostic, and
our personal adventures before and after make clear three pertinent
ideas: |
|
(a)
That we were alcoholic (addict) and could not manage our own lives. |
|
(b)
That probably no human power could have relieved our alcoholism
(addiction). |
|
(c)
That GOD could and would if HE were sought."

A
PRAYER OFFERING YOURSELF TO GOD...
Take,
O Lord, and receive
my
entire liberty
my
memory,
my
understanding,
and
my whole will.
All
that I am,
all
that I have,
You
have given me
and
I will give it back again to You
to
be disposed of
according
to Your good pleasure.
Give
me only Your love
and
Your grace;
with
You I am rich enough.
--Ignatius
Loyola

A PRAYER FOR THE
RESTLESS HEART
You
awaken us to delight in Your praise;
for
You have made us for Yourself,
and
our hearts are restless until they rest in You.
--Augustine |
