This Camel Prayer Bookmark features a classic recovery poem using the camel as a symbol of humility, prayer, and staying sober one day at a time. The poem reminds members that the camel begins on its knees, carries its load through the day, and stays "completely dry."
In recovery, the message connects with the daily practice of starting the day with prayer, surrender, and reliance on a Higher Power. For many members of Alcoholics Anonymous and other 12 step programs, the Camel Prayer is a simple reminder that when we begin the day with humility, we can face our responsibilities and stay sober for today.
