Prayer
Heavenly Father, I come before you with a heavy heart, acknowledging my sins and shortcomings. I confess my need for your forgiveness and mercy. I ask for your grace to help me to see my mistakes and to learn from them. Wash me clean, O Lord, and create in me a pure heart. I trust in your unfailing love and rely on your grace to restore and renew me. Help me to forgive myself and others, just as you have forgiven me. Help me to also forgive those who have wronged me, as carrying the weight of resentment harms me more than it affects them. Let Your love wash over me, and cleanse my heart from all that taints it.
In Jesus' Name Amen
