Prayer of Blessing
God of mercy, give Your strength to all who are struggling with addiction and substance abuse. Enfold them in Your love and restore them to the freedom of God’s children. Look with compassion on all those who have lost their health and freedom. Restore to them the assurance of Your unfailing mercy, and strengthen them in the work of recovery. Grant patient understanding and a love that perseveres to those who care for them. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
