“Dear God, Please teach me to forgive myself and others. Remove the walls that keep love out, behind which I am a prisoner. Heal my guilt and remove my anger, that I might be reborn. Make gentle my heart and strong my spirit and show me how to love. Please show me how to honor myself. Please teach me how to listen to myself. "Please program my mind to know itself, that I might at last be free. Teach me to appreciate your spirit that lives within me. Show me how to be good to myself, that I might know more fully the goodness of life. Amen” KnowsMindHeartShowsMightLastsSpiritStrongBehindsTeachWallMy HeartHonorPleaseGoodnessProgramAppreciateForgivingGuiltDearBe GoodHealGentleRemovePrisonerShow MeAmenRebornHow To LoveDear GodAppreciate You Author:Marianne Williamson
