Reflection 10 - PRAYER OF BLESSING IN TIME OF GRIEF
PRAYER OF BLESSING IN TIME OF GRIEF
May our hearts be opened by the pain of our loss
May the absence of the one we loved bring us to serenity
May our tears heal our hidden wounds
May our memories call us forth, inviting us to gratitude for what
was and what is in our hearts
May the spirit of the one we have loved stand beside us
so to gift us with the priceless gift of serenity in our pain
May their spirit go to the place of Heavenly freedom so that we
can continue the healing road of life and living, now dark, now grey
One day with God’s help we will turn life’s road to see
The healing light of Jesus and our loved one
May they bless us with a healing heart so that we are gifted
And blessed to love again.
