Prayer for Strength to Forgive
Faultless Lord, enduring death for me, You have consummated the debt
of my sins:
Your sacrifice of forgiveness was absolute! Grant me the strength
to also forgive others,
To excuse their transgressions against me. So I may truly reflect
this spiritual fruit,
Obliterate any persistent feelings of malice. Let each trespass
end as a closing chapter,
My continuing on the road of righteousness. Forgive my sins as I
aspire to forgive others.
You are truly archetypical of forgiveness. You are a most
forgiving Lord!
