Dear Lord, we come before You with hearts open to Your teachings on forgiveness. Thank You for the gift of Your Son, Jesus, who showed us the ultimate act of forgiveness on the cross. Your Word in "Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." Help us to embrace this truth and let it transform our hearts.

May Your Holy Spirit guide us in showing grace to those who have wronged us, just as You continually show grace to us. We pray that our lives reflect Your love and forgiveness in all that we do. In Jesus' name, Amen.
