Lord,
I come to you this evening in a weakened state.
For every step I have taken towards you, you have taken two towards me. Time after time you have demonstrated your power and your unending forgiveness. Father, I need that forgiveness tonight. I need it tonight and I ask for your help. You've helped me with so many things, and so many of them were things I needed help with but never asked for, so I hope that my request to you will be heard and acted upon.
I'm a drunk. A blackout drunk. I wiped out a whole 750mL bottle of Vodka last night and then dipped into my Dad's Canadian Whiskey. I do something like that entirely too often, and Lord, I don't want to do that anymore.
Lord, I know I take after my Mother in too many ways, and I don't want my exit from this world to be like hers – a slow suicide in a drunken haze leading to multiple organ failure.
I know I need to do the legwork for this, but Lord, I ask that you show me the strength hidden within myself to overcome this struggle as you've helped me in the past.
Thank you for hearing me this evening.
Amen.
