Love Unbound Greg Crowhurst

This book is dedicated to all those who suffer and seek solace.

It reflects on the writing of John Paul II who has now been sainted. We hope it blesses you as you read it.

“When intense physical, emotional, spiritual or mental suffering comes to you, you have a stark choice. Either you enter more deeply into the meaning of suffering, where you find Christ, not just as a theological idea or someone somewhere else, but living, alive with you more deeply than you could ever have imagined before this suffering came upon you; or you choose a path of fear and despair. This book opens up a pathway to help you more clearly see and understand the meaning and the possibilities open to you within your suffering.”

A prayer to the Heart of Love

 Take a moment to be still. Feel the energy of the Father who is Love, the Son who is Mercy, the Spirit who is Power. Feel them all with you. Now you are going to pray to the Heart of Love.

I place myself and who/what I pray for, in the very centre of the Heart of Love. I pray to all three, Father Son and Holy Spirit to come to my aid. I state again my prayer. I trust it will be heard and answered.

I place myself and ………. In the Heart of Love, where miracles happen and Joy is complete. I immerse myself in the wonder of Love!

Wait then in hope and openness, knowing that God is with you and there is no greater love than the Love of the Holy Trinity.

Wait expectantly.

Feel the energy of love surrounding you. 

Feel all burdens, worries, needs being lifted and carried, transfigured and transformed as you hope and pray. 

Find peace and trust. Amen

Give thanks to the Holy Trinity in whom you place your trust!

Finish by praying the Our Father once more, knowing it is a powerful prayer of love and protection, of oneness and trust.

Be safe, feel loved, trust and hope that you have been heard, seen and answered, Amen

Come into the hurting places

 

We are proud to announce that my prayer ‘Come into the Hurting Places’ has been published in the latest edition of the Faith Companion.

Come Into The Hurting Places: a prayer for those who suffer

Come into the hurting places if you will.

Come gently into the hurting places of my body, 

Caress then gently if you will,

Tenderly heal them if you will.

Come gently now into the hurting places of my heart.

Release the many unshed tears if you will,

Fill my vulnerability with your strength if you will.

Come gently now into the hurting places of my mind,

Touch each painful moment with love if you will, 

Lift my thoughts to higher places if you will.

Come gently now into the hurting places of my soul, 

Let your light pour into me if you will,

Give me the gifts of your spirit if you will.

Come into the hurting places if you Will

And make me whole.

Limbo

I am in Limbo Land again

That place of total weakness and inability on every level.

I cannot see clearly. 

I cannot find the strength to move.

My thoughts are weak and disconnected, my memory dissipated yet again.

I cannot say I do not know this place,

Yet still I fall into despair at its frequency of return.

I clasp on to the slightest brightest moment

And somehow manage to kid myself that it will not come back,

That this moment of better movement or clarity is how I am and how I will be,

Then back I fall into painful, paralysing sleep

And all my hope is undone.

Here I have to hope that God is with me

Even when I forget.
