Prayer

Jesus, thank you for the love that you showed me in taking my burdens, and those of others here listed, through your death on the cross. Thank you for this moment of blessing and grace. Help me to encounter you now in a way that I can understand. Jesus, give me the gift of faith and an experience of your resurrection, of the new life that you have to offer. AMEN.

(You might now like to pause for a prayerful moment. Listen to God speaking to you heart-to-heart.)

Be at peace. Jesus came to show you that you don’t need to carry your burdens on your own. He submitted to death to take on the things that weigh you down – either your own sins or hurts done to you. Every day he longs for you to give them to him. Do visit again and perhaps you might want to stay a little while longer to talk to Jesus about your life… Wherever you are, he’s there.

For more about unburdening please see: http://www.life4seekers.co.uk/channelling/confession.html This link leads to a page about the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession). The above burdens area is not a substitute for this 'sacrament' but attempts to provide an opportunity for visitors to encounter Jesus's love and forgiveness in and through Christ-centred prayer. Confession is an amazing spiritual channel and whatever we say to the priest during it is NEVER revealed to anyone else. It's a wonderful thing.

“Although there is no substitute for that face-to-face meeting with God in the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession), through which we receive God's unconditional love and forgiveness, perhaps this resource can give you a foretaste of the joy you feel when you lay down your burdens at God’s feet and see him smiling at you full of love.”
