Small enough to take on the go.

Even though this book is small enough to take on the go, I keep it on my bedside table. It is originally designed to get over an addiction problem(s) I find it works just as well when you have no problem.

This is the second edition with 44 new prayers that correspond to 183. The first ones are popular and you probably already know them by heart such as “The Lord’s Prayer”; you remember “Our Father, Who art in Heaven…”. There is a Guide for Daily Reading. But I am reading numerically.

Updated from the original title, this is a collection of 183 prayers and poems, published by Hazelden, to support anyone in a 12-step program. As with most such collections, some really struck and chord and others not so much. Still, I think this is a good resource for anyone seeking to live a life in Recovery.

A wonderful book for the newly recovering person

I found the book compelling when reflecting on the past 24 hours as well as the 24 hours to come as well as the present.
