Fifth Step Prayer

 

Divine creator. Thank you for this chance to speak honestly with another person about the events of my life. Help me accept responsibility for my actions. Let me show compassion for myself and my family as I revisit my thinking and actions that have blocked me from your love. Restore my child within. Restore my feelings. Restore my trust in myself. Amen. ~ ACA WSO INC., Adult Children of Alcoholics/Dysfunctional Families, ACA WSO INC. Kindle Edition.

There are two prayers within the text
of the original text of the Alcoholics Anonymous,
the Big Book, and those are for the Third and Fifth Steps.
You can find prayers for all Twelve Steps, though.
Consider these if you’re curious.
In addition other Twelve-Step programs have their own.
The Fifth Step is a tough one, often traumatic:
[We] Admitted to God, to ourselves
and to another human being
the exact nature of our wrongs.
 This Adult Children of Alcoholics
may well help us all to courageously
admit our wrongs.
