I am often asked, “How do I start to forgive”? I know forgiveness is a difficult emotion, but in order to grow, we all need to learn to open our hearts and to let go of the pain and hurt. The angels have always told me it is very important to let all these emotions out, rather than keeping them inside, as holding onto the hate and anger is not good for you. It is not easy, but one thing you can do to help you forgive is to write down the pain and hurt. It will help you to release some of these emotions and to forgive others. I tell you more about forgiveness in the video at the end of the article.
Another thing you can do is to say the Prayer of Forgiveness for Those Who Have Hurt Me. I have said it every day since childhood because God told me to do so. It is in my book “Prayers from the heart”. Even though this a short prayer, it is a very powerful one:
Prayer of Forgiveness for Those Who Have Hurt Me
Dear God,
Please forgive those that have hurt me
Because I forgive them.
Amen
Blessings to you, your loved ones, and your family,
Lorna.
