"Today we pray for ourselves, that we may know our addictions and
admit them. We pray that we become detached and free from whatever holds us back
and kills our joy that comes from God. We pray that every day, we may attach our
spirits in humble prayer to the God who made them and the God for whom they were
made.
We pray for all those whose lives are being destroyed by addiction here
and beyond. May this be the time when new hope is born
and many souls turn back again to God. Matt Talbot, pray for us."
