Higher Power of my own understanding,
Infinite Radiance of All that IS,
I seek your assistance
As I count all those
Whom I have harbored a resentment towards
Whom I have caused harm.
Let me first be reconciled with them
As I take responsibility for my own actions
Help me to be as forgiving towards them
As you are to me
Grant me the willingness
To begin this process
To clear away the wreckage of my past,
So that I might restore myself
In all these relationships
With myself, with them
And most importantly with You.
Let it be so!
