I have found that the only way to release the past and what no longer serves me is to forgive. I found this forgiveness prayer a number of years ago and I found that it has helped me to let go of what I no longer want to hold onto:
All that has offended me, I forgive. Within and without I forgive. Things past, things present, and things future I forgive. I forgive everything and everybody who can possibly need forgiveness of the past or the present. I forgive positively everyone. I am free and they are free too. All things are cleared up between us now and forever. Amen
John, I appreciate how sincerely you share the forgiveness prayer and its freeing effect. Thank you for sharing
John, Thank you for your beautiful prayer on forgiveness. I have written it down and plan on using it too. What a wonderful way to release what you no longer need to hold on to. In Gratitude.
Thank you John. Try using the Law of Substitution on each of those and set yourself free.
This is profoundly simple and simply profound. Thank you for sharing this beautiful prayer. It’s a powerful reminder that forgiveness is the ultimate release, for ourselves as much as for others.
