We revisit our Birth to toddler years as our childhood was intended for innocence and love, to discover that God was there with blessings abounding.  Healing our toddler memories can release us from all sorts of negativity, including bitterness and hatred.  It can also free us to love our children and break any cycle of abuse and neglect.  Healing memories or our toddler years can open us to the abundant life!

Opening Prayer

Healing the Toddler Years
Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs.

✠ In the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

✠ Amen

Eternal Father, together with your Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit… You are glorious and magnificent, transcending all of creation, time, and space. Through the intercession of Mary, the Mother of Jesus, and St Joseph, guardian of the Holy Family, we ask you to pour out your blessings  to the hour of greatest need as we pray for the healing of memories.

The Lord’s Prayer

Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name; Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done On earth as it is in heaven.
✠  Give us this day our daily bread; And forgive us our trespasses As we forgive those who trespass against us, And lead us not into temptation. But deliver us from evil.

Hail Mary

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
✠ Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners. Now, and at the hour of our death.

Glory Be  (Gloria Patri) 

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
✠ Amen.

Inner Healing: Toddler Years

“Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs.” Matthew 19:4

Heavenly Father, in the Name of your Son Jesus, through the power of the Holy Spirit, pour your grace over my person, history, and memories from birth until age five. Heal me of any feelings of neglect, rejection, physical, mental, or sexual abuse.

Merciful Father, speak to my inner child and Help me recognize that I am your beloved child, in whom you are well pleased…so I may forgive my parents, and anyone who harmed me during these precious toddler years, releasing me from the bitter root and filling me with your Light, Light and Love.
✠ Amen.
