This book is dedicated to helping all recovering addicts find and deepen a connection to their Higher Power, however they define it. Praying for Recovery is for confirmed believers or not-yet-believers looking for a new spiritual path. The author presents his own experience in overcoming his skepticism about a personal God and learning to pray for recovery with an open heart. Especially for this book he has translated Psalms that were instrumental in helping him to make the Twelve Steps a spiritual path for himself. The book offers them to other recovering addicts, along with accompanying prayers and meditations. Praying for Recovery can be used either by those working the twelve Steps for the first time, or by individuals who continue to revisit individual steps as part of their ongoing recovery. The book invites readers to build their own experiences of prayer upon the psalms and mediations presented here.
