Prayer of the Day
[Jesus said] “When you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”
Mark 11:25
Father, please bring to my mind anyone I might be bearing a grudge against. As I meditate on the unmerited grace of Your forgiveness, I ask that You help me to extend that same forgiveness towards them. Let me not be like the servant who withheld forgiveness despite being forgiven much, but to truly and wholly forgive others from my heart (Luke 7:21–35). I pray that I will teach and model to my children what a tender and forgiving heart looks like, so that they, too, will show Your grace towards others.
