You’re always faithful to forgive me when I fall and come to You asking forgiveness. You never fail to restore our relationship and repair my heart.
America today is so divided. We don’t seem capable of getting beyond our differences. But You’ve taught me there are several phrases that are always welcome when we’re struggling with broken relationships:
“I’m sorry.”
“I was wrong.”
“Please forgive me.”
Teach me humility and help me be courageous enough to take the first step in healing broken relationships. Teach me to speak healing words that will help begin the reconciliation process.
Only You can truly heal a broken, distrustful heart…but I can choose to partner with You and reach across the divide to show Your heart to a desperate and lonely world.
AMEN
