Recovery Prayers
A prayer guide that has been around for a long time!

Question
I’ve found a lot of inspiration from the prayers in the AA Big Book. Can you recommend another good selection of recovery prayers that might be inspirational to a drug addict taking things one day at a time and needing all the help from above he can get?
I would encourage you to read the book of Psalms and pray those to God. The ones that David prayed when in distress and went to God for help with his problems are great ways for you to pray for help with your addiction. The "enemies" & "wicked" that he prayed about are personifications of the temptations you wrestle with on a regular basis.
