In the first book to explore how memories impact and are affected by faith, bestselling author Dawn Eden offers a guide to the process she used to heal the pain of her past. Through her own story, as well as the examples of St. Ignatius of Loyola, St. Peter Faber, and Pope Francis, she shows how the mercy of God can bring you healing and inner peace.Dawn Eden's My Peace I Give You helped thousands find peace after abuse and established her as the leading Catholic authority on recovering from traumatic stress. In Remembering God's Mercy, Eden-who suffered childhood sexual abuse that left her with PTSD-describes how she was inspired by the example of Pope Francis, St. Ignatius, and St. Peter Faber, all of whom suffered from their own painful experiences and followed a similar path to healing.Through the wisdom of these three Jesuits, Eden developed an Ignatian model of healing:* Acknowledge your memories.* Accept that they change the way you see God, your fate, and other people.* Allow God to transform your memories with his story of salvation. In each chapter, Eden will engage you with specific steps to take using the most famous Ignatian prayer, the Suscipe-Latin for "receive"-to transform your past traumas into an offering to God that is united with Jesus' own self-offering.
