Here is a prayer to help you to forgive: Lord, You tell us to forgive our enemies. This I want to do—or do I, really? But Lord, I do not know how to forgive—or is it that I just haven’t the moral strength to do so? Deliver me from nursing a grudge. Help me to want to forgive. Fill my mind with magnanimous thoughts. Make me bigger than I’ve been acting. Let me know the joy of forgiveness and reconciliation. The Bible says, “For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you” (Matthew 6:14). So please take my enemy off my hands. And I thank You that I find it in my heart to say, “Be good to him or her.” Amen.
