Prayer for Inner Healing

Lord Jesus

May You be praised for the love and mercy You have shown me all my life;

I praise You and I thank You for that love with which You died for me, and with which You share the radiance of Your risen life.

The reality of evil has touched me in my own sin and in the sins and imperfections of others.

Lord, heal me of these wounds, let the power and the beauty of Your life shine in me.

I renounce all attachments to my resentments, I forgive anyone who has ever hurt me and I pray for them.

Jesus, I join myself to that act of forgiveness in which You died, and I love all those people who have entered my life; I embrace them with the same love and tenderness You have for them. I hold them up to Your face, O Lord and I ask You to bless them and be gracious to them!
