A Prayer for a Broken Friendship

A Christianity prayer for friends & relatives.

Merciful Father,

You know the hurt that remains when a friendship that once brought happiness becomes damaged or distant. Help me understand what went wrong without allowing anger, regret, or bitterness to take control of my heart.

Where I have caused hurt, give me humility to apologize sincerely. Where I have been hurt, give me grace to forgive while also having wisdom about the boundaries that may be necessary.

If this friendship can be restored, guide us toward honest conversation and reconciliation; if our paths must remain separate, help us move forward with peace.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
