Prayer

Prayer for Freedom from Addictions

Drugs, alcohol and other addictions are tearing apart families, just as they tear apart our larger society. We ask that those we love see the way to their own liberation.

Lord,
One we love is bound by addictions and now is not truly alive, for addictions end choices, addictions end freedom.
You died, Lord, so that we could be free to choose our destiny.
Please, Lord, help one we love make the choice to break free of addiction and, in freedom, walk back to us and to you.
