How To Pray For Your Workનમૂનો

Forgiving others and asking for forgiveness are crucial elements in any prayer practice. Jesus models both in Matthew 6:12.

“Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors” (Matthew 6:12).

When you pray, take a moment to ask God two questions. 1) Do I need to forgive someone else? And 2) Have I done something wrong for which I need to ask forgiveness?

You may have hurt someone you work with, either on purpose or by accident. Perhaps by acting rashly or by delaying important action you caused injury to others. If this is the case, you can ask God’s forgiveness, and you can ask God if there’s anything you need to do to fix the situation.

Other people at work may have hurt you. Forgiving them is an important step to enjoying your own work and your own relationship with God. Forgiveness doesn’t mean that what they did to you was right. It only means that you drop the charge against them. God has authority to deal with that person in his own time and with his own justice.
