Living one day at a time;

Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

As a parent of two grown children who deal daily with addiction and sobriety I take a lot of comfort from the complete prayer. I have plans to embroider it on a wall hanging for each boy. Ann in TN


Thank you Ann! I never knew the rest of it. I wish it had been offered as well from the fabric company

What a special friend you are to be doing this! Your loved one will need all the understanding, support and help that you can give.

She has a long journey ahead of her, and I hope your love will help her, the wall hanging is a great idea.

Thank God that she is getting help. We lost a beautiful 19 yr old here to depression that turned into addiction. Just wouldn't get help. Said she could do it by herself. So sad. I'll add to my prayer list.
