The Burden of Unforgiveness –
Today’s Marriage Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father,

We want to grow in Your grace, Lord. We want to live according to Your will and to experience the full blessings of love, joy, and peace, but until we deal with the pain that we carry, we can never completely be filled.

Help us to throw off the burden of unforgiveness. Give us the strength to forgive and to deal kindly in every situation. We might never forget the pain, but we can keep ourselves from dwelling in the past — from rekindling past wrongs. May we learn to leave it in Your hands, believing that You will deal wisely on our behalf.

Help us to move forward together, ministering to each other with words of encouragement. Bring healing to every part of our heart, our soul, and our marriage.

Fill our hearts until they’re overflowing with joy, and then fill them again.

In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
