A Prayer for Forgiveness
We are driven to search for love and acceptance from the moment we are born as if by instinct so strong to be accepted-------
First we try and achieve great things to get us noticed and give a feeling of worth From the others around us-------
We look to those closest to us for love and even strangers for acceptance only to still fill empty inside------
Soon we discover that the love we are searching for is stronger than any other and his acceptance is our salvation------
The relationships we have with those we love are based on our ability to understand true unconditional love, trust and forgiveness------
In life things do not always go the way we want them to and then we look to ourselves or others for what went wrong------
What could we have done differently and how could we have let these precious moments slip through our hands------
We need to remember God created his son in our likeness to show us his ways through many trials but not to blame or shame us ------
But since we can be of a sinful nature we sometimes fall short of that and become lost blame ourselves or others-----
Then it is time to remember that Jesus story told of many times when things where not perfect but he gave his life for change----
He shows us everyday his love by his actions in our life but most of the time we miss those moments in our hurried lives------
Stop and take the time to look at your life and the many times he forgave you and pray for his forgiveness ------
Pray to God that he showed love involves sacrifice good and bad his was the ultimate one of his only son----
Pray to him and be thankful that his acceptance is already yours and you need not seek it anywhere but through God -------
Live each day as the gift that he gave you to share with the ones you love, family, friends
accept the good with the bad and give forgiveness no matter the blame-------- As he did
