Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father,
I come before You today with a humble heart, recognizing my need for Your forgiveness and guidance. I acknowledge the mistakes I have made, the wrong choices I have taken, and the hurt I may have caused others.
Lord, I repent for the areas of my life where I have fallen short and chosen to walk away from Your perfect will. I ask for Your mercy to wash over me and cleanse me from all unrighteousness. Help me to let go of any guilt or shame that burdens my soul, and replace them with Your comforting love and peace.
Today, I choose to turn away from those things that separate me from You. I surrender my will to Yours, and invite Your Holy Spirit to guide me in every step I take. Please forgive me, O Lord, and create in me a clean heart. Renew a steadfast spirit within me.
I understand that repentance is not just about remorse, but also about making a firm commitment to change. Grant me the strength and wisdom to overcome my weaknesses and to resist the temptations that lead me astray. Help me to grow closer to You each day, cultivating a heart that reflects Your love, grace, and compassion to others.
Thank You, Father, for Your incredible love and patience. I am grateful for the opportunity to approach Your throne of grace and receive Your forgiveness. May this moment of repentance mark the beginning of a renewed and purified relationship with You.
