Prayer for the Addict who Still Suffers
 
Christmas is a time when those of us who love an addict who still suffers may feel the loss more deeply.

So I thought I'd offer a prayer for the addicts who suffer and those who love them.

May they know they are in our hearts and prayers, wherever they are, and may the light of hope that we each hold shine through the darkness and reach them.



For Families Torn by Addiction

We pray, O God of hope,
for all families
whose lives are torn and disrupted
by drugs and alcohol.
Enable them to identify the illness.
Strengthen them to seek help.
Bless them with the power of your love,
which imparts transformation and wholeness
to those who trust in your name.
Grant that as they walk this tortured road,
they may journey together
and bound close in the bond of love.
Amen.
