LEARN FROM YESTERDAY, LIVE FOR TODAY, HOPE FOR TOMORROW |
|
Learn from yesterday. Spiritual healing
means taking our spiritual memories, our long hidden and suppressed
negative spiritual feelings around our abuse, naming them with the
help of a spiritual care provider, and finding healthy ways to heal
them. As adults, we develop ways to perceive our Creator's presence
in our childhood. We learn to re-frame the abusive events in our
memory. As we do so, we can see the Holy, and ourselves, with new
eyes. As our relationship with the creator changes, our soul begins
to heal. Live for today. As our souls are healing, we are able to put away the distorted images of the Sacred, and ourselves, that we developed as children. We are finally able to let every part of ourselves and our past be embraced by the Creator in love. That action lets us see ourselves with new eyes, and begin to know ourselves as our Sacred One sees us. Hope for Tomorrow. When we are able to let our Creator love us and love ourselves, we are able to move into the future without our constant companions of self-hatred, self-doubt, fear, and anxiety. Our vision of the future enlarges and expands. Possibilities open up that we could never have imagined. Mary’s Hope Workshops help both survivors and those who care find the tools to help with the difficult journey of spiritual healing through workshops and retreats. |
