FULL CIRCLE prayer
Forgiveness
I find this world is such an unforgiving place full of unforgiving people yet God tells us we need to forgive each other. In fact He insists on it. I understand why it's necassary so we don't get hard hearted towards each other and bitter with hatred for each other but when people hurt us individually we can't see why we should forgive. But we forget we are the 'people' too hurting others. We do it or others do it intentionally or not, it doesn't matter which it is when we are hurting. So we carry it, talk about it, get others onside with us and keep it going. It doesn't matter because let's face it ..we hurt!! God sees it another way. While we hold on to hurt He can't work with us because we are all bitter, twisted inside and prefer revenge to forgiveness. . Robyn M.
Let's pray
Dear Jesus, this is one of the hardest things you ask of us to forgive especially when some things are unforgivable. But you would not ask us unless it's possible. As your word says our hearts are deceived above all else so it comes natural to us to stay unforgiving instead. But you are a 'super'natural God who wants us to forgive so we can be made whole, completed, feel love instead of hate that can eventually consumes us. Please help us look to you for this help so our natural thought becomes a supernatural thought to really genuinely forgive. We can't do this without you. But I know you know us better than we know ourselves and this is the only way to really heal to move forward. In Jesus name Amen ๐
Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.
