Embrace forgiveness as a spiritual
principle and
discover a new closeness with the Divine.
Forgiveness is a spiritual path that you
embark on with intention and vision, purposefully seeking to
bridge the gap between your hurt and suffering and your sense
of wholeness and resilient inner light—the light of God.
This inspiring guide for healing and
wholeness supplies you with a map to help you along your
forgiveness journey. Deeply personal stories, comforting
prayers and intimate meditations gently lead you through the
steps that allow for the evolution of forgiving—loss,
anger, acceptance, learning, forgiveness and restoration.
Tapping both ancient and contemporary sources for the
nourishment and strength needed as you seek to rekindle inner
peace, this book tenderly whispers encouragement as you are
brought to—and realize you are able to cross—your
own bridge to forgiveness.
“Lovely … a perfect companion
on the path to forgiveness, from those very difficult first
steps to the ever-lighter steps that ultimately lead to peace,
joy and wholeness.”
