A prayer for you

Prayer for My Father Struggling With Addiction

Praying for a man you looked up to, now caught in something bigger than himself.

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new.
2 Corinthians 5:17 (WEBBE)

Lord, my father is held captive by addiction, and I ache for the man I once thought invincible. Your word promises that in Christ the old self can pass and everything be made new; I dare to hope that for my dad. I plead for his freedom, through what may be a long, slow turning. Bend his pride enough to confess he needs help and to receive it — treatment, counselling, a brotherhood of men in recovery. Pull away the secrecy that locks men like him in silence. Keep me from stewing over old wounds or surrendering to hopelessness, and give me wisdom about love and limits. Make my father new, Lord, and refuse to give up on him even when he gives up on himself. Amen.
