Forgiveness: A Guide for Prayer, the second title in the popular Take and Receive series, is based on the first week of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius. These meditations help readers to focus on how sin becomes an obstacle to receiving God's love. Moving Scripture passages and commentary emphasize that like the father in the story of the prodigal son, God is always ready to embrace us with his mercy and forgiveness. These revised and updated editions offer 36 structured meditations, providing a relevant Scripture passage, an incisive commentary, and a suggested approach to prayer for that day. Designed as a support for private prayer, these exercises can also be used in prayer groups, faith-sharing communities, and Bible studies. Spiritual directors and retreat leaders will find the series to be invaluable in bringing others to Christ.
To have Peace one needs forgiveness!

This book is part 2 in the Take Lord and Recieve series and it is based on the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola. The value of this book is that it uses all different styles of prayer and it very much appeals to imagery, imagination in its contemplations, it would use mantras, and the use of journaling, drawing and all kinds of methods to open up one's spirit to going deeper into one's being. In today's world we won't become peace makers until we realize that we aren't perfect and we can begin to forgive ourselves and others for the things which block peace.
