Pray For Me That I Can Forgive Those Who've Wronged Me

[Scott Hutchinson]

Sister Jane Eyre, I pray that you can find peace in your spirit.

Well, each day gets a little easier. One day I will wake up and "all of this will be behind me." Thank God that Jesus never changes and that I can depend on Him.

You are on the right road with this request.

The best thing that worked for me was to pray for them. I had to keep praying for them till I felt a love for them. It's a huge step. It takes a lot of dying to self...at least, that was MY experience and how I got through it...I'm sure others will have some great advice as well.

Blessings to you...

Jane, this is a good answer above & very true.
I am sorry that you were hurt and your prayer request above shows you desire to do the right thing.
We all have been hurt at one time or another by other people & unfortunately will be again as Jesus already knew when whe admonished, no commanded us to forgive others.

I will be praying for you that God would give you Grace as you make that decision to release any ought or bitterness & forgive others.

Recognizing and admitting that we, too, have wronged others at some point or other should help us in the obligation and biblical requirement to forgive others.

Sure, there are degrees of offense, but that doesn't justify excusing our own while being unforgiving toward someone else just because we feel someone else's offense toward us was more grievous.

"This, then, is how you should pray:

Our Father which art in heaven .....

Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us ..... "
