A true alcoholic's prayer

(Originally written July 1, 2012 on a scrap of paper now lost)

6 days.

Lord, it should only be 20 days to the wedding but I'm becoming increasingly depressed with the prospect that Erin will postpone. I know it is just punishment for what I deserve. But what did she do? Don't inflict this pain on her. Give her a clear message from you to continue on. Lord, root out all selfish ambitions from me. See I come to you a humble and broken man. Hear my prayer and answer me quickly. Be not far from me. Teach me in your scriptures today.
