A Prayer for a Broken Family Relationship

A Christianity prayer for relationships & marriages.

Merciful Lord, You know the pain that comes when people who once loved one another become separated by anger, misunderstanding, or hurt. Where my family has become divided, open a path toward healing and reconciliation.

Give each of us humility to examine our own actions before judging another. Help us find the courage to apologize where we have caused pain and the grace to forgive where forgiveness is needed.

Where reconciliation is possible, gently lead us toward it, and where healing requires time, give us patience for the journey. In Christ, Amen.
