Does Your Family Need Healing? Try These Powerful Prayers for Peace, Healing & Harmony
Every day, especially the holiday season serves as a huge reminder for many of us that the promise of peace from the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ, has yet to be manifested in many of our families.
The Sacred Family had situations beyond their control, including, the murder attempt of the Child Jesus which disrupted their peace as a whole.
There are things in life we cannot control, and we certainly cannot predict when these external forces work against us.
However, we can pray to God for total forgiveness through reconciliation and healing from the physical, emotional, and spiritual ailments that keep us in prison/bondage thereby placing a huge gap between one another.
Every day, especially The Feast of the Holy Family is an excellent day to pray for peace in your family. And if you can pray together as a family, these healing prayers will be faster and more efficacious than we can ever imagine. (Matthew 18:20)
Here are some of the powerful prayers for family healing.

Prayer to Our Lady Undoer of Knots
O Virgin Mary, faithful Mother who never refuses to come to the aid of your children;
Mother whose hands never cease to help because they are moved by the loving kindness that exists in your Immaculate Heart, cast your eyes of compassion upon me, and see the snarl of knots that exist in my life.
You know all the pains and sorrows caused by these tangled knots. Mary, my Mother, I entrust to your loving hands the entire ribbon of my life.
In your hands, there is no knot that cannot be undone. Most Holy Mother, pray for Divine assistance to come to my aid.
Take this knot (mention need) into your maternal hands this day;
I beg you to undo it for the glory of God,
once and for all,
in the name of your Divine Son,
Jesus Christ.
Amen.

Peace Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace:
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
Verse 1, Peace Prayer of St. Francis
O divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen.
Verse 2, Peace Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi.
St. Francis of Assisi, pray for us!
Jesus, Mary, and Joseph pray for us!
