Description: We know the world needs mercy, that we need mercy. But how do we become instruments of mercy – how do we bring mercy to the world? Forgiveness is hard, and necessary, and possible! *SPOILER* Paola probably cries a little

From the John Paul II Healing Center, prayerful steps for forgiveness

Ask the Holy Spirit to show you who you need to forgive (family, friend, abuser, God, yourself).
Picture the person in front of you and pay attention to what you feel.
Make an account of the debt they ow you (what did they take from you, how did they hurt you? It is OK to feel angry).
Imagine yourself telling them what they did to hurt you and how it has affected you.
Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal to you what you believe about yourself based on that incident (identity lie).
Renounce the identity lie. (For example: “I renounce the lie that I am not loved or cared for”)
Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal the judgments you hold towards that person who hurt you.
Renounce the judgements (see prayer above).
Renounce inner vows (see prayer above).
Ask Jesus to forgive the person.
Forgive the person.
Pray a prayer of blessing over that person – ask God to bless them in the opposite way that they hurt you.
Ask Jesus to seal this forgiveness and heal the wounds.
Thank God for his healing.
