My Prayer

Lord please forgive me for the anger that is in my heart.
   Lord I need to talk with you, but I really don’t know where to start.
I know that you won’t forgive an unforgiving heart.
   I repent all my ill feelings and walk away that is my part.
Things have been said the words were from the flesh.
   That is why I chose to repent, cleanse me and make me fresh.
Lord I ask forgiveness for me and all involved.
    Lord this is a mystery not for me to try and solve.
Bitterness only darkens the corners of my heart.
    It’s like a festering sore, one that gets bigger and will not depart.
The more that you feed it the bigger it becomes.
    Leaving you cold and bitter with a soul forever numb.
Lord if you would guide our mouth and guide our words.
    Lord let this dissension be settled with soft spoken words, and let every voice 
that is among us let it be heard.
Father should we be in discourse then let it be settled and made right.
    Let us all grow in faith and always keep your word in sight.
For it is your love and forgiveness we pray for and we seek.
   It is your word that gives us strength it is food for the meek.
Please forgive us and love us, this I ask of you.
   Help us be better Christians in all the things we do.
In Jesus’ name I pray let your will be done.  Amen
