A Prayer for Someone I'm Struggling to Forgive

Forgiveness is often a long road, not a single decision. It doesn't mean what happened was okay.

A prayer you can pray

God, I'm finding it hard to forgive. You know how much this hurt.

I don't want bitterness to take root in me. Help me release this, even a little at a time. Heal what was wounded, and let me be free. Amen.

These are suggested words, not a formula. God hears you however you pray.

Make this prayer your own

Take a quiet moment. You don't need the right words—just talk to God honestly. These questions can help you begin.
