November 8: Closure to Past Wrongs

            Past wrongs undeniably have the ability to hurt us in the present. We ask God to bring us closure through healing. May we seek reconciliation where possible and acceptance where not. May our closure be based on the principles of compassion and understanding towards others and ourselves. We pray God will guide those who have hurt us towards contrition and us towards forgiveness. While we may not be able to forget or undo the past, we ask for God’s help in healing the pain we continue to feel in the present.
