Bedtime Gratitude Prayer (I heard I'm supposed to thank my Higher Power at bedtime for keeping me clean all day, so I'm adapting my Morning Gratitude Prayer for PM use.) Thank you, Higher Power, for all your blessings, mercies, and kindnesses; for nourishment and sustenance—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Thank you for all the love and support of family, friends, and professionals. Thank you for another chance—another opportunity—to live seeking to learn, know, and do your will. Thank you for getting me through another day—another 24 hours—clean, sober, and unharmed. AMEN! :24: |
:hmmm: That's pretty :lame: ! Does anybody have a good evening gratitude prayer? Oh, and here's the morning prayer asking HP to keep me clean. I'm supposed to pray it each morning. https://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/showthread.php?t=33062 AM prayer for sobriety Love, Eddie |

My bedtime prayer was for the pain in my teeth to go away; and when it did go away because of the pain meds, my bedtime prayer turned to a prayer for sleep since the pain meds were keeping me awake...I am grateful all prayers, Eddie Z. (my lovely new friend), and my family!! |
My bedtime prayer included my thanks for bringing Ryan back into my life & for letting me know that he is sober and okay!! I am grateful for my friend Ryan!! |
Bedtime with my baby... Everynight I say my bedtime prayer with my beautiful daughter Quincey. We thank God for whatever we feel like. I always start mine with "Thank You, God, for my wonderful daughter Quincey..." or something like that. It is a great way for both of us to stay in touch with our spirituality. (She is eight, and if I try to forget, she always reminds me!) |
((((Samantha)))) ((((Laura-Lu)))) Grateful to feel like I'm alive again! Thank HP for the sunshine! Love, Eddie |
I said a bedtime prayer that was exclusively thanks to my higher power for being a part of my life; and so I am so very grateful for my higher power!! |

Thank you so much, Sam, and you're welcome, too!! I am grateful that I can be of help. Right now I'm waiting to take a friend to the ER...actually I have to go now. Keep praying, Samantha! Pray that my friend doesn't die. Love, Eddie |
my prayers are a coming with you & yours plus your friend in them now and always |
First of all, my prayers are going out to your friend Eddie. Hope all turns out well. And Sam, prayers are coming your way too!!! Just wanted to post this. Most nights if I do not nod off too fast in bed I say a prayer like this: God, thank you for another day on your earth and another day sober. Thank you for the roof over my head, the clothes on my back, the food on my table and my health. Thank you for my husband, my son, my family and friends. Please God, don't ever let me forget that although there are people that have it better than I do, that there are always people who have it much worse....let me be happy with what I have today. Please help those who are much less fortunate than I am, those who are without shelter tonight and those without food. Let them see another tomorrow. Please keep my son safe as he sleeps tonight. God, forgive me any of my mistakes (usually I name them) and help me to do better tomorrow. Thank you for another day God. Thy will be done, not my own. Amen. Now this is kind of long and some nights depending on what kind of a day I have had with my mistakes but also somedays it is short and sweet too. But I get my message to God and ask forgiveness at the end and thank my HP for another day. Love, Karen |
Thanks and that is an awesome prayer, Teiger!! Tonight my bedtime prayer will be for more rain and a good first workout at the gym tomorrow!! |
Thanks, Samantha! And thank you, Karen for that wonderful prayer. I printed it out. It's just what I've been looking for! Well, we got my friend admitted to psych last night. Now he probably needs some long-term rehab. He can't seem to stay clean on meetings alone. It's so distressing to see what this disease can cause people to do to themselves...but I am grateful that we got him looked after. Love, Eddie |
This morning I prayed for more rain and more cooler temperatures plus, I prayed for a good workout (which was awesome) and for my higher power's will in all things to be done!! Hope your friend is okay, Eddie!! |
Grateful that I could chair the H&I meeting at Forsyth; for Sondra; and that, yes, my friend is OK. —Eddie |
