Do You Need To Ask Forgiveness?

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.Psalm 51:10

Did you mess up some way and may not be aware you did wrong till it was pointed out. Maybe you not asking forgiveness has fractured a relationship. The mouth is where most mess ups begin sharing things you had no right to.

Don’t just sit there! First pray then wait. Don’t just jump in and make another mess. Listen to God. Pray for the person you will be asking forgiveness of to be open to it and to rebuild trust.

Wait 24 hours at least, covered with prayer then if you have peace go to the person you hurt or betrayed and don’t just say you are sorry but ask humbly for true forgiveness. The wounds may be still there and it may take time but keep praying.

PRAYER: Lord I thank you that you forgive us so we should forgive others and help me willingly grant forgiveness when someone asks me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
