Lenten Prayer
God of Compassion,
You alone know the depth of my pain.
You are aware of the people I have loved,
but who refused to love me in return.
You were with me when those I trusted
betrayed my faith in them.
Only you can understand how words and actions
have left me wounded and alone.
Heal me of my hurt.
Allow me to break those chains of pain
that bind me to my offenders.
Through your strength, show me
how to forgive,
how to move forward,
how to live.
Amen.
