I let go (Fr. 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. 

--Fr. Thomas Keating, 

The Welcoming Prayer
