Face The Mirror, The Ongoing Prayer

A Poem by LadyAnn68

Thanking for sobriety... even now.....11 years clean...

Face the Mirror, the Ongoing Prayer

 

Face the mirror, what do you see?

Above the horizons beyond the possibilities,

Listen to your conscious when it has profound things to say,

Count your clean-time a blessing everyday!

 

Self-improvement is the only forwarding plan,

Thank God for that decision you have finally made a stand,

Look, Look what’s happened to me?

I’ve changed so much I am easy to please!

 

Don’t want to be rich with lots of money,

Don’t need new clothes or lots of jewelry,

All that’s important is the ability to say “NO!”

Realize it ‘s your choice and the only way to go!

 

So we bow our heads and pray…

 

Father strengthen us to listen before we come apart,

Father shine your everlasting light in our hearts,

Father we recognize improvement comes with a certain amount of pain,

Father, we give many thanks for our Recovered “Victory” gained!

 

FATHER, "STAND BY US THROUGH OUR CONTINUAL CHANGE!"

We have to face ourselves in the mirror everyday, and as long as you can look yourself in the eye you know you are doing well enough to improve as a human.
