The Welcome Prayer

The Welcome Prayer, by Father Thomas Keating:

Welcome, welcome, welcome.

I welcome everything that comes to me in this moment because I know it is for my healing.

I welcome all thoughts, feelings,emotions, persons,situations and conclusions.

I let go of my desire for security.

I let go of my desire for approval.

I let go of my desire for control.

I let go of my desire to change any situation,condition, person or myself.

I open to the love and presence of Godand to the healing action and grace within.

AMEN
