The Welcoming Prayer

Breathe deep and pray this in. I am grateful to Anam Cara Ministries for sharing this prayer today.

The Welcoming Prayer 
by Father Thomas Keating

Welcome, welcome, welcome.
I welcome everything that comes to me today because I know it's for my healing.
I welcome all thoughts, feelings, emotions, persons, situations, and conditions.
I let go of my desire for power and control.
I let go of my desire for affection, esteem, approval and pleasure.
I let go of my desire for survival and security.
I let go of my desire to change any situation, condition, person or myself.
I open to the love and presence of God and God's action within. 

Amen.
