Urgent prayers needed- smoking cessation

2 replies

ashamedandneedprayers · 30/11/2011 22:08

I am 10 weeks pregnant and desperate to stop smoking. I have been so very stressed I haven't managed to stop yet. I plead with anyone who reads this to pray for me to quit as soon as possible. I have thrown them away this evening, but I am worried as I am always very stressed in the mornings because of the school run and then again at dinnertime.
PLEASE pray for me to be strong.

Praying... Think of the good that you are doing your baby (and yourself, of course). And don't be ashamed... It's hard to give up, and you have taken a big step already in throwing the cigarettes away. Can you find something else to do instead when you feel the need for a cigarette: healthy snack, go outside for some fresh air (NB this doesn't work if you are at work and 'outside' is where all the smokers congregate), read a page of a book, say a prayer for yourself (the serenity prayer would be very apposite in the circs).

Good luck. You are doing the right thing and we're right behind you.

Thanks Totally, I will try praying the serenity prayer this morning. I will try snacking instead, I have just bought loads of fruit juice so I will use that too Smile
