A prayer for letting go and letting God heal and restore... during Prisons Week

Let us walk together through the week in prayer, in Prisons Week, and grow in our understanding of the value God places on each one of his children, so that like the ravens we may soar, free at last, trusting in the knowledge of his provision and love for us.

A heartfelt and faithful prayer and reflections from a prisoner… all about letting go and letting God heal and restore….

LETTING GO
”Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.” Hebrews 12:1

I was down and thinking of behaviours before I decided to let go, let God heal and restore. I’d done drugs, sex and violence in the past to cope. But they all left me empty , and no feeling of hope. When I read through the scripture, something happens in me - I want to do good things and be with God’s family. You can’t change the past, but the future you can. If you’re looking for hope, then God has a plan.
