Revelation Prayer:Dear Heavenly Father:

I thank You for the many ways You have forgiven me. I confess that I have not always extended the same forgiveness to those who have hurt me. Instead I have held onto my anger, bitterness, and resentment toward them. Please bring to my mind all the people that I need to forgive in order that I may do so this morning.

In Jesus’ Name, amen.
