FORGIVENESS... A MATTER OF THE HEART ...
Entering the Inner Sanctuary
Enter this sanctuary time by settling down, becoming quiet, and breathing deeply a few breaths. Remind yourself you are in the Presence of Love. This place you are entering, within, is the inner Temple. Here, you are One with Spirit and all persons, and Nature. You may use a mantra, or prayer phrase, follow the breathing in-and-out, or witness the arising and falling of all around you as the manifestation of universal-Grace. Enjoy these moments of Quiet and come out when you are ready. The following video is provided, for those who would like meditative music to accompany your Quiet contemplation:

At the deepest levels of our being, we all want to be connected, loved, and nurtured.

Due to this innate need to actualize our Connection with others, we are going to be hurt. What do we do, however, when we are deeply hurt? Recently, this happened with me, and it has been leading me to explore more how to work with energy in forgiveness. So, I am still seeking after many years of working with forgiveness, to find more powerful means to actualize this Grace of Forgiveness. I hope what I share below will help you in this process, also.
This is an Energy-Prayer for a person you feel hurt deeply by. This is to facilitate your healing and forgiveness of the hurt, as well as opening to love the other as LOVE wills. You are giving a gift to the other, and yourself. Along with this Prayer, you may choose to do an act to confirm it. This could include a letter or card, sending flowers, a phone call, ... In some cases the other person does not welcome any such act - in that case, you can do another act alone or in company with a friend who would be a witness of your act. Spirit can bring about a re-contact in time, and more likely if you retain goodwill and prayerfulness toward the person. This Prayer is a sample, to be used word-by-word or to inspire you to shape such a Prayer of your own. When you offer the flower, I recommend you be in Silence with eyes closed, and see yourself doing this for the other person. Finally, a key in such Energy-Prayer is Feeling - let yourself "feel" the Prayer.
Great Spirit, I feel hurt deeply by _______________

Thank you that ___________ was in my life, and I trust Your higher Purpose in this and all things

Indeed, I vow to release it, the moment I see that it has arisen, and I will see ______________ only through the eyes of Your Loving Grace
I will, also, only speak positively about _________________
Help me to do this
Amen! and Peace!

We have each been deeply hurt, possibly by one who did not intend the hurt. However, the hurt still hurts. Forgiveness is like to permitting the hurt to let go, or our choosing to let go of the hurt. In deep hurt, this is usually a process. Intent, however, is key to this process, and Prayer can facilitate the manifestation of the intent.
