I need a prayer of forgiveness for my soul and for the soul of my lost love

[Guest]

It was a little more than a year ago that my love, Richard, took his own life. He had reached out to me in his darkest hour and I did not go to him as I should have. God was telling me to go to him and to be compassionate and forgiving but my own pride and hurt and confusion got in the way. I did not understand the depth of his pain and suffering and was in denial of his suicidal ideation. In my heart I believe that had I gone to him that day he would still be here; that I could have helped him as he had helped me in so many ways...I cannot forgive myself for my failure; for letting him down...I am as lost as he was and every day is torture though I could never do what he did... Please pray for me and for Richard. He was all that I ever wanted and I miss him so much.

Lord, my heart aches for M. I feel her pain and sorrow. I feel her agony. I bring her and lay her at your feet. I ask for your healing hand of mercy and grace to cover her. I pray for deliverance for her tortured heart and spirit. Lord, help her to see she is not responsible for the actions that were taken that night. There is no way to know what would or could have been. I pray you would wrap your loving arms around her and draw her close. Wipe away her tears of sadness, tears of loneliness, tears of heartache.

Give her your blessed peace and heal her broken heart. May she find strength in you to continue on and let go of the past. May you give it all to you, release it and find joy in her spirit again. I thank you and praise you for my sister and for your hand upon her prayers. To you be all glory, honor and praise. Amen

Dear M,

There are so many times in our lives that we wish we could go back and change things. That is part of being human. You do not have to worry about forgiving yourself because our Lord will do so without fail. Sinply talk to God and tell him how you feel and how sorry you are. You will be absolved of your guilt. We as mortals make mistakes. God does not. He knows your heart and will provide you comfort. You have the opportunity to help many others not make the same mistake. By this lesson you will in fact possibly save numerous lives from ending. Your friend's death will not be in vain. Trust God to heal your wounds. He loves you and has a plan for you. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ for him to take you into his comforting arms and let you heal. God bless you!
