Post how this goes for you.. Spiritual WorkA. Read 20 minutes X 4-6. Try to be unique.It’s important that you read this weekend. If you haven’t gotten a book then get one. If you have a book, but have not been reading it–then start reading it. Reading is so important for all people, but it is especially important that we who struggle with addiction read. Reading will help us to feel that ever present void in our soul.. Make it happen…B. Find a Song…Find a good song this weekend — one that plays on your senses..One of those more spiritual type songs, the ones that have the ability to change how your are feeling–from being in a poor mood, to now being in a good and healthy mood..C.  Work on Prayer…A few times over the weekend, I want you to work on prayer in a secluded setting. Go to somewhere quiet at least 3 times, even more if you feel like you need it. When praying, be real, and not repetitive. Have a conversation with God as if he were you father in heaven; and just as a good father will stand by his son or daughter while they learn through the trials of life, then so will our father in heaven be forgiving of our misfortunes.
