Opening Prayer
Hail Mary, Mother of Mercy, I come before you today seeking your powerful intercession for freedom from addiction. Through the mysteries of your Son’s life, death, and resurrection, I ask for the grace to overcome these chains that bind me. Protect me with your maternal care, and lead me back to wholeness in body, mind, and spirit. Accept this Rosary as a sign of my desire to serve God with renewed strength and purity of heart.
The Joyful Mysteries
The Annunciation
Scripture Reference: Luke 1:26-38
Meditation: When the angel Gabriel came to Mary, he found her in a state of openness and readiness to receive God’s word. Mary’s yes to God’s plan shows us that freedom begins with acceptance of God’s grace. Just as Mary said yes to the Lord’s purpose for her life, we too must say yes to healing and transformation. The Annunciation teaches us that God’s plan for our lives is far greater than any false comfort we seek through addiction. In this moment of announcement, we see that Mary’s obedience became the foundation for our salvation. We must find that same willingness to trust God’s better plan for our recovery.
Prayer: O Mary, Immaculate Virgin, I ask you to help me understand that God has a plan for my life far greater than the lies addiction tells me. Give me the courage to say yes to healing, even when it is difficult. Help me surrender my will to God’s will, just as you did. Obtain for me the grace of honesty about my struggle and the strength to seek help from those who can guide me. Make me open to receive the mercy and love that God wishes to pour into my heart.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of openness to God’s healing plan.
The Visitation
Scripture Reference: Luke 1:39-56
Please consider supporting us with a PayPal donation
Meditation: Mary hurried to visit her cousin Elizabeth, bringing Jesus to those in need. This mystery shows us the importance of community and connection in our journey to freedom. Addiction often thrives in isolation, but healing happens when we reach out to others and allow Christ to work through community. Mary’s visit brought joy and recognition of new life. When we reach out to trusted friends, family, or spiritual directors, we invite Jesus into our struggle. The Visitation reminds us that we are not meant to carry our burdens alone, but to share them with others who can support us and point us toward Christ.
Prayer: Mother of God, help me overcome the shame and fear that keeps me isolated. Give me the courage to reach out to those who can support me in my recovery. Help me see that sharing my struggle is not weakness, but an act of trust in your care and in the body of Christ. Grant me friends and mentors who will walk with me and help me recognize Christ’s presence in my pain. Teach me to be honest about my needs and to accept help with gratitude and humility.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of seeking help and community support.
The Nativity
Scripture Reference: Luke 2:1-20
Meditation: Jesus was born in poverty and simplicity, stripped of worldly comfort yet rich in God’s love. His birth shows us that true peace and satisfaction come not from external substances or behaviors, but from the presence of God. In the manger, we see that what truly matters is not physical comfort or pleasure, but spiritual awakening and love. The shepherds found joy and purpose in knowing the Christ Child, not in any earthly possession. As we pray this mystery, we are called to find our true fulfillment in God’s presence rather than in the temporary false peace that addiction offers.
Prayer: Dear Jesus, born in poverty yet infinitely rich, help me to understand that the peace I have been seeking through addiction can only be found in you. Strip away from me the desire for false comforts and temporary fixes. Help me to find joy in the simple presence of your love, just as the shepherds found their purpose in encountering you. Give me the wisdom to recognize that you alone can satisfy the deepest longings of my heart. Birth in me a new desire for spiritual joy and freedom from these enslaving habits.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of finding true peace in Christ.
The Presentation
Scripture Reference: Luke 2:22-38
Meditation: When Jesus was presented in the Temple, Simeon recognized Him as the light of the nations, though a sword of suffering would pierce Mary’s heart. This mystery teaches us about the cost of redemption and the pain that often precedes healing. Recovery from addiction requires us to present ourselves honestly before God, acknowledging our weakness and our need for mercy. Like Mary, we may experience pain as we let go of old habits and face the reality of what addiction has cost us. Yet this presentation before God is also an act of faith, trusting that His light will guide us through our darkness.
Prayer: Most Holy God, I present myself to you today, just as you were presented in the Temple. I lay bare my struggles before you, holding nothing back. Help me to accept the pain that comes with facing the truth about my addiction and its consequences. Grant me the grace to persevere through this difficult journey of healing, knowing that you are the light that guides me toward freedom. Like Simeon, help me to recognize your saving power working in my life, even in suffering. Strengthen me to offer myself completely to your healing work.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of honest self-presentation before God.
The Finding in the Temple
Scripture Reference: Luke 2:41-52
Meditation: Mary and Joseph searched for Jesus with anxiety and urgency, not fully understanding where He could be found. This mystery shows us the fear and confusion we may experience when we have lost our way through addiction. Yet when they found Jesus, He was in His Father’s house, doing His Father’s will. Our search for freedom and healing must lead us back to God’s house, to prayer, to the Church, and to God’s will for our lives. Jesus knew His purpose even as a child; we too must recover our sense of purpose and identity that addiction has obscured. The finding of Jesus in the Temple is our finding of ourselves in God’s love.
Prayer: Blessed Virgin, Mother of Jesus, I know that I have wandered from my Father’s house, lost in the confusion and darkness of addiction. Help me to search with the same urgency that you and Joseph searched for your Son. Guide me back to God’s house, the Church, where Jesus dwells in the Eucharist. Help me to understand my true purpose and identity as a beloved child of God. Free me from the lies that addiction has told me about who I am and what I need. Lead me to hear Jesus saying, “Why were you searching for me? Did you not know I must be in my Father’s house?” Help me to recognize that I belong to God.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of finding one’s true identity in God.
The Luminous Mysteries
The Baptism of Christ
Scripture Reference: Matthew 3:13-17
Meditation: Jesus submitted Himself to baptism, and the Holy Spirit descended upon Him like a dove, with God the Father’s voice proclaiming His love and approval. This mystery invites us to understand baptism as a death to our old selves and a rising to new life in Christ. For those in addiction recovery, this mystery speaks powerfully of dying to old patterns and habits, and rising renewed through the power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus’ baptism was His public commitment to His mission; our turning away from addiction is our public commitment to following Christ. The heavens opened at Jesus’ baptism, showing that when we surrender to God, heaven itself opens its grace upon us.
Prayer: O Holy Spirit, come upon me as you came upon Jesus at His baptism. Wash away the shame and guilt of my past. Help me to die to my old ways and to rise anew in the waters of your grace. Let me hear God the Father’s voice speaking words of love and acceptance over my life, despite my failings. Give me the courage to make a public commitment to my recovery and to Christ. Help me to understand that this is not my strength alone, but the power of the Holy Spirit working within me. Renew me completely, body, mind, and spirit.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of dying to old ways and rising renewed.
The Wedding at Cana
Scripture Reference: John 2:1-12
Meditation: At Cana, Jesus’ mother approached Him when the wine ran out, and Jesus responded by transforming water into wine through His miraculous power. This mystery shows us that Mary is our advocate and intercessor, bringing our needs to Christ. Addiction often leaves us feeling spiritually depleted, running on empty, like the wine giving out at a celebration. Yet Christ has the power to transform our emptiness into fullness, our pain into purpose, our shame into grace. Mary’s faith that Jesus would help demonstrates our need to believe that He can transform our deepest struggles. The transformation at Cana was not just physical; it was a sign of the spiritual transformation Christ offers to all who turn to Him.
Prayer: Mary, Mother of Jesus, you knew to bring your requests to Christ when all seemed lost. I bring to you today my empty heart, my depleted spirit, my life running dry from addiction. Go to your Son on my behalf and ask Him to transform me. Help me to believe that Jesus cares about my recovery and is willing to work miracles in my life. Give me faith to trust that the same power that transformed water into wine can transform my weakness into strength and my broken past into a redeemed future. Let me taste the grace that comes from Christ’s boundless mercy.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of believing in Christ’s power to transform us.
The Proclamation of the Kingdom
Scripture Reference: Mark 1:14-15
Meditation: Jesus came proclaiming that the Kingdom of God was at hand, calling people to repent and believe the good news. This mystery speaks to the radical transformation required in recovery: we must turn away from our false gods of addiction and toward the true Kingdom of God. The good news is that there is a better way, a better King, a better purpose for our lives. Jesus proclaimed freedom for the captives, and those bound by addiction are indeed captives in need of liberation. The Kingdom of God offers real peace, real fulfillment, real purpose, and real community. This is the news we must believe and embrace in our recovery.
Prayer: Jesus, Lord of the Kingdom, I hear your proclamation that your Kingdom is at hand. Help me to turn away from the false kingdoms I have built through addiction and toward your Kingdom of peace, justice, and love. Let me truly believe the good news that there is forgiveness, healing, and new life available to me. Give me the repentance that comes not from shame, but from love of you and your truth. Help me to understand that following you means joining a Kingdom far greater and more satisfying than any pleasure addiction promises. Teach me to seek first your Kingdom and your righteousness.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of turning toward God’s Kingdom.
The Transfiguration
Scripture Reference: Mark 9:2-10
Meditation: On the mountain, Jesus was transfigured before Peter, James, and John, revealing His divine glory and connecting Him with Moses and Elijah, representing the law and the prophets. This mystery shows us that beneath the surface of our ordinary human weakness, there is a divine spark, an eternal glory that addiction tries to hide and destroy. The transfiguration occurred on a mountain, a place apart where Jesus withdrew to pray and commune with God. We too must find times and places to withdraw, to pray, and to encounter the presence of God in our lives. The disciples’ fear and wonder at the transfiguration reflects our own awe when we encounter God’s love and healing power working in our recovery.
Prayer: Jesus, Light of the World, reveal to me on the mountain of prayer the glory of God’s presence in my life. Help me to see beyond my current weakness and shame to the person I am meant to become in you. Transfigure my heart, my mind, and my will. Help me to withdraw regularly from the noise and chaos of my addiction patterns to encounter you in prayer and silence. Connect my healing journey to the great cloud of witnesses, the Saints who have also struggled and overcome. Let me experience your light shining through my darkness, transforming me from the inside out.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of beholding God’s transforming presence.
The Institution of the Eucharist
Scripture Reference: Luke 22:14-20
Meditation: Jesus took bread and wine, giving His body and blood for us in an eternal sacrifice of love. The Eucharist is the source and center of our Christian life, offering us the grace we need day by day to resist temptation and grow in holiness. In recovery from addiction, we need constant nourishment from Christ, not the empty nourishment that addiction promises. Each time we receive the Eucharist, we are strengthened with the body and blood of Christ, united to His sacrificial love. The Eucharist is both a meal and a sacrifice, reminding us that Jesus gave everything for our redemption, including freedom from addiction. Regular reception of the Eucharist becomes our spiritual food and medicine in recovery.
Prayer: Jesus, present in the Eucharist, feed me with your body and blood. Strengthen me with your grace for the daily battles I face against addiction. Help me to understand that in receiving you, I am receiving the love of One who knows my struggle and has conquered death itself. Teach me to hunger for you more than for any substance or temporary pleasure. Give me the grace of regular communion with you, so that I am never left alone in my weakness. Help me to see in the Eucharist the ultimate expression of love, that Christ gave Himself completely for me. Nourish my soul with your presence.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of spiritual nourishment in Christ.
The Sorrowful Mysteries
The Agony in the Garden
Scripture Reference: Matthew 26:36-46
Meditation: Jesus entered the garden of Gethsemane and prayed with such anguish that He sweat drops of blood. He knew the suffering that lay ahead, yet He submitted Himself to His Father’s will, saying, “Not my will, but yours be done.” This mystery speaks directly to the inner struggle of addiction recovery. The garden represents the private moments when we wrestle with our desires and our commitment to change. Jesus’ agony was real, not minimized or hidden. Our own agony in recovery is real too, not something to be ashamed of. Yet Jesus shows us the path: we must pray, we must be honest about our struggle, and we must ultimately surrender our will to God’s will. Jesus’ submission in the garden won grace for all of us.
Prayer: Jesus, I sit with you in the garden of my own agony. I feel the weight of what addiction has done to me and what recovery will require. Help me not to hide my struggle or pretend that I am stronger than I am. Let me be honest before God about my pain and my fear. Give me the grace to pray as you prayed, seeking not my own comfort, but God’s will for my life. Help me to understand that surrender to God is not weakness, but the truest strength. Support me through the agony, and help me to trust that God’s will for my recovery is far better than the false peace addiction offers. Make me willing to do whatever it takes to follow you.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of honest prayer and surrender to God’s will.
The Scourging at the Pillar
Scripture Reference: Matthew 27:26
Meditation: Jesus was beaten and scourged by those who were meant to punish Him, though He was innocent. He bore physical pain and humiliation without retaliation or bitterness. This mystery reminds us that Christ has already borne the punishment for our sins, including the sins that addiction has brought us to commit. We do not need to punish ourselves or believe that we are beyond redemption. Jesus took the blows that we deserve. At the same time, this mystery shows us that pain is part of the redemptive process. Recovery is not painless; it involves facing consequences, experiencing discomfort, and enduring the process of change. But we endure this not alone, but united to Christ’s suffering.
Prayer: Jesus, wounded for our sins, help me to understand that you have already borne the punishment I deserve. Heal me of the shame and self-hatred that addiction has created within me. Help me not to punish myself, but to accept your mercy and forgiveness. Give me the grace to accept the natural consequences of my actions, not as punishment, but as part of my healing journey. Help me to offer my own suffering in this recovery to you, united to your passion and redemption. Teach me that enduring hardship in the path of recovery is not a sign of failure, but a participation in your redeeming work. Strengthen me to bear what needs to be borne with faith and hope.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of accepting mercy and redemptive suffering.
The Crowning with Thorns
Scripture Reference: Matthew 27:29
Meditation: Jesus was mocked and crowned with a crown of thorns, treated as a king only to be scorned and ridiculed. This mystery speaks to the mockery and shame that addiction brings. We may feel crowned not with honor, but with shame and ridicule for our struggle. Yet Jesus teaches us that true dignity does not come from the world’s approval or the world’s judgments. Jesus was crowned with thorns, yet He was still the King of Kings. Similarly, we may feel stripped of dignity by addiction, yet in God’s eyes we are still beloved children of the King. The thorns that crown Jesus are now transformed into a symbol not of shame, but of His redeeming love. Our shame can be transformed through His love.
Prayer: Jesus, crowned with thorns for my sake, help me to accept the shame and ridicule that I fear from my addiction and my recovery. Help me to see that you have already borne the mockery that I fear. Give me true dignity, not based on the world’s judgment, but based on being your beloved child, redeemed by your blood. Help me to crown you, not with thorns, but with the allegiance and gratitude of my transformed heart. Free me from the need for approval that drives so much of my destructive behavior. Teach me that my worth comes from your love, not from how others perceive me. Help me to hold my head high, not in pride, but in the confidence of being loved and redeemed by Christ.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of accepting true dignity in Christ.
The Carrying of the Cross
Scripture Reference: Mark 15:20-22
Meditation: Jesus carried His cross to Calvary, and along the way, a man named Simon was forced to help Him carry it. This mystery shows us that our recovery journey involves carrying a cross, but we are not meant to carry it alone. The cross itself is not meant to crush us; it is meant to bring us closer to Christ and to heal us. Addiction has been our burden, our cross. Recovery involves setting that burden down and taking up a different cross, the cross of transformation and new life. Like Simon, others will walk with us, helping us carry what we cannot carry alone. Jesus used His cross to redeem the world; our willingness to carry the cross of recovery can become a source of redemption in our lives and an example to others.
Prayer: Jesus, you carried the cross not for yourself, but for me. Help me to accept the cross of recovery, knowing that you walk with me and others walk with me. Help me to see that this cross is not a burden of shame, but a pathway to healing and redemption. Give me strength to take each step, knowing that the weight becomes lighter as I give it to you and as others support me. Help me to become like Simon, willing to help others carry their crosses when my own healing allows me to do so. Teach me that the cross leads not to death, but to resurrection. Transform my cross into an instrument of grace in my life.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of sharing our cross with Christ and others.
The Crucifixion
Scripture Reference: John 19:25-37
Meditation: On Calvary, Jesus died on the cross, giving His life for the salvation of all. His death was real, His suffering was complete, His sacrifice was total. Yet in His death is our victory, in His final breath is our new life. The crucifixion is the moment when Christ conquered sin, death, and the power that addiction holds over us. Jesus descended into the very depths of human pain and despair so that we would never face those depths alone. He died so that we might live. His blood was shed for the forgiveness of all our sins. In recovery from addiction, we must die to our old selves so that we might rise in newness of life. We are crucified with Christ, yet we live.
Prayer: Jesus, crucified for my salvation, thank you for dying so that I might live. Help me to accept your sacrifice and to respond to it by giving my own life over to you. Help me to die to my addictions, my pride, my selfishness, and my fear. Let me be crucified with you so that I might rise in new life. I stand beneath your cross with Mary, your mother, and with all the Saints, receiving the grace that flows from your precious blood. Help me to understand that your death and resurrection have broken the chains of addiction and set me free. Make me worthy of your sacrifice by living for you with all the love and commitment I can give. Grant me the grace to persevere to the end.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of dying to self and rising in Christ.
The Glorious Mysteries
The Resurrection
Scripture Reference: Mark 16:1-8
Meditation: On the third day, Jesus rose from the dead, victorious over sin and death. The resurrection is the foundation of our hope and the sign that new life is possible. For those in recovery from addiction, the Resurrection speaks of the possibility of rising from the death that addiction brings. We may feel spiritually dead, emotionally dead, morally dead from addiction. Yet Christ’s resurrection proves that death is not final, that transformation is possible, that new life awaits. The women who came to the tomb expecting death found life instead. We too may come to our moment of crisis, our tomb of despair, and find instead the living Christ reaching out to us. The Resurrection is not just a historical event; it is a spiritual reality that happens in each of us when we turn to Christ.
Prayer: Jesus, risen from the dead, breathe new life into my spirit. Help me to believe that I am not forever imprisoned by my addiction, that resurrection is possible for me. You conquered death; help me to believe that you can conquer the death that addiction brings. Let me experience the joy of the resurrection in my own life as I turn away from old patterns and embrace new life in you. Help me to be like Mary Magdalene, encountering the risen Christ and being transformed by that encounter. Give me the courage of the disciples after the resurrection, speaking boldly of the new life that Christ offers. Make my recovery a participation in your resurrection, a rising to new life with you.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of rising to new life in Christ.
The Ascension
Scripture Reference: Mark 16:19, Acts 1:9-11
Meditation: Jesus ascended into heaven, not leaving His disciples as orphans, but sending them the Holy Spirit and promising to return. The Ascension reminds us that our hope is not in this world alone, but in heaven, in God’s presence. Addiction often roots us in this world, in temporary and worldly pleasures. The Ascension calls us to lift our hearts to heaven, to fix our gaze on Christ, and to remember that we are made for something far greater than earthly comfort. Jesus ascended so that He might prepare a place for us in His Father’s house. Our recovery is not just about stopping bad behaviors; it is about lifting our hearts and minds toward God and heaven. The Ascension shows us that Christ continues to intercede for us before the Father, standing in heaven on our behalf.
Prayer: Jesus, ascending into heaven, help me to lift my heart and mind toward you and toward heaven. Free me from the earthly attachments that addiction creates, and teach me to seek first the Kingdom of God. Help me to remember that I am made for something far greater than the temporary pleasures that addiction offers. Give me the grace to keep my eyes fixed on you and on heaven, even as I live and work in this world. Thank you for preparing a place for me in your Father’s house. Help me to live in the hope of eternal life with you. Intercede for me before God the Father, just as you promised. Send me the Holy Spirit to guide and strengthen my recovery.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of lifting our hearts to heaven.
The Descent of the Holy Spirit
Scripture Reference: Acts 2:1-4
Meditation: On Pentecost, the Holy Spirit came upon the disciples in tongues of flame, filling them with courage, wisdom, and power. The Spirit gave them the ability to speak boldly, to heal, to teach, and to transform the world. The Holy Spirit is also the gift we need for recovery from addiction. The Holy Spirit gives us courage to face our struggles, wisdom to make good decisions, and power to resist temptation. The Spirit also gives us the ability to speak truth about our addiction and our recovery. Peter, who had denied Jesus, was transformed by the Holy Spirit into a bold witness to Christ. We too, transformed by the Holy Spirit, can become witnesses to God’s healing power. The Descent of the Holy Spirit is the gift of God’s presence within us, providing everything we need for our journey of recovery.
Prayer: Holy Spirit of God, come upon me with power and grace. Give me courage to face my addiction and to commit to recovery. Give me wisdom to make good decisions and to recognize temptation before it overcomes me. Give me power to resist the desires that addiction creates and to choose what is good and holy. Help me to speak truth about my struggles, to others and to myself. Transform me as you transformed the disciples, taking my weakness and shame and turning them into strength and purpose. Fill me with your gifts of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Make me a witness to your healing power in the lives of others. Help me to depend on you daily for the grace I need.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of the Holy Spirit’s power and presence.
The Assumption of Mary
Scripture Reference: Revelation 12:1, Catechism of the Catholic Church 974
Meditation: Mary was assumed body and soul into heaven, the only human person (other than her Son) to receive this unique grace. The Assumption shows us that God honors the body as well as the soul. Addiction harms our bodies, our temples of the Holy Spirit. In recovery, we learn to honor and care for our bodies, recognizing them as gifts from God meant to be treated with respect and dignity. Mary’s Assumption is also a sign of hope. She was taken up to heaven not because she earned it through some extraordinary deed, but because she said yes to God and remained faithful. We too can be taken to heaven not because we are perfect or because we never struggled, but because we have said yes to God and remained faithful, even imperfectly, throughout our lives. Mary in heaven is our mother and advocate, interceding for us as we struggle.
Prayer: Mary, assumed into heaven, you show us that our bodies matter and our souls matter. Help me to respect and care for my body as a temple of the Holy Spirit, not to abuse it through addiction. Help me to see that honoring my body is a way of honoring God. Thank you for your intercession in heaven on my behalf. Though you are in glory, you remain close to us, your children on earth. Help me to feel your maternal presence and care as I work toward recovery. Pray for me before God the Father. Help me to understand that I do not need to be perfect to be loved and accepted by God, just faithful and willing. Lead me toward heaven through your example of faithful devotion to God.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of honoring and caring for body and soul.
The Coronation of Mary
Scripture Reference: Revelation 12:1, Catechism of the Catholic Church 975
Meditation: Mary was crowned as Queen of Heaven, given authority and honor by Christ Himself. She who said yes to God, who bore the suffering of watching her Son’s passion, who remained faithful in her own struggles, is now crowned with glory. The Coronation of Mary shows us that faithfulness is rewarded, that suffering has meaning, and that our obedience to God leads to glory. In recovery, we are promised that if we remain faithful to Christ, if we say yes to His healing grace, we too will be crowned with glory in heaven. We are heirs to the Kingdom of God. Mary, crowned as Queen, is also our Queen, showing us that we do not walk this journey of recovery alone. We have a mother in heaven who cares for us, who understands our struggles, and who intercedes for us. The crown upon Mary’s head is also a sign of victory, the victory of Christ over sin and death, and the victory that can be ours in recovery.
Prayer: Mary, crowned as Queen of Heaven, help me to persevere in my recovery so that I too might receive the crown of glory that Christ promises to those who remain faithful. Help me to understand that my faithfulness now, even in struggle and difficulty, has eternal significance. Thank you for your example of obedience and faithfulness. Help me to see that my recovery is not just about stopping addictive behaviors; it is about advancing toward my own crown of glory in heaven. As Queen, use your authority to intercede for me before Christ and the Father. Help me to feel your queenly protection over my journey. Give me the grace to live as a prince or princess of the Kingdom of God, claiming my dignity as your child and Christ’s redeemed one. May my recovery be a pathway to the glory that awaits me in heaven.
Fruit of the Mystery: The grace of faithful perseverance toward eternal glory.

Give me the strength to resist temptation, the courage to reach out for help, and the faith to believe that Christ’s mercy is infinite. Let the fruits of these mysteries—openness to healing, community support, true peace, honest self-presentation, genuine identity, dying to old ways, belief in Christ’s power, turning toward God’s Kingdom, beholding God’s transformation, spiritual nourishment, honest prayer, merciful redemption, true dignity, shared burdens, new life, hope in heaven, the Holy Spirit’s power, care for body and soul, and faithful perseverance—work themselves into my life day by day.
