Good and gentle Jesus, You always uphold, always nourish, always give rest. Free
me now, Lord, from the wounds of violence. Take away the bitterness. Take away
the pain. Lead me to that place which gives rest and nourishment. Hide me in Your
Wounds, my loving Savior. Bury my losses in Your Crucifixion. Help me to reach
out to those who can assist me. Help me to deal with my anger in a way that frees
rather than destroys. When life seems most bleak, Lord Jesus, remind me of the
beauty of nature that restores and heals. Transfigure my wounds into something
beautiful. Transform my sorrows into songs of love. Take me to that holy place,
deep inside Your Sacred Heart that always offers refuge and peace. Renew me,
Lord, in the midst of this broken world, that I might rejoice in You and become that
wounded healer who brings souls to You. Thank You, Lord, for my life. Thank
You, Lord, for Your unfailing love. Amen.
