Reconcile and Live! Oh, God, I have a confession to make. I have harbored bitterness in my heart. I have resented certain people and have not forgiven them in my heart. I need your help to forgive them, as you have forgiven me. I forgive “them” now. And, God, I just don’t want forgiveness, I want reconciliation of this particular relationship. I recognize that you created every person in your image that you have a great purpose for each of us. I ask you to help me see this person as you see them. Help me to love them with the unconditional love of Jesus. Forgive me for the times that I have not valued them. Please restore this relationship in the only way you can – amen. #HillChurchMcminnville
