A Prayer for a Merciful Heart

Heavenly Father,

You have shown mercy to the undeserving, offering forgiveness freely to all who turn to You. Teach us to reflect that same mercy in our own lives. When faced with injustice, help us to respond with grace. When wronged, give us the strength to forgive.

Lord, remove any bitterness or resentment that lingers in the heart. Replace it with the peace that comes from trusting in Your justice and sovereignty. Help us to love not only those who are easy to love but also those who have caused harm.

May our lives be a testimony of the transforming power of grace. Let our actions reflect Your kingdom, and may we be known as people who love as You love.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
