Merciful and compassionate one,
I come before you with a heavy heart,
Humbly seeking your forgiveness for the mistakes,
Shortcomings and wrongdoings that weigh heavy on my conscience.
I acknowledge that I am human and I have made mistakes in thought,
Word or deed.
I am deeply sorry for the pain and hurt that my actions may have caused to others and to myself.
I recognize the consequences of my choices and the impact they have had on my life and the lives of others.
Grant me the courage to take responsibility for my actions and the humility to admit my faults.
Help me to face the consequences of my choices with grace and dignity,
Seeking to make amends where possible and learning from my mistakes.
I ask for your forgiveness,
O Divine One,
Knowing that your love and mercy are boundless.
Your compassion knows no bounds and your forgiveness is a wellspring of grace that flows freely to those who seek it with a sincere heart.
As I seek your forgiveness,
I also pray for the strength to forgive myself.
Help me to release the burden of guilt and self-condemnation,
Replacing it with a healing balm of self-compassion and self-growth.
Guide me on a path of transformation and growth that I may become a better version of myself.
May the lessons learned from my mistakes be stepping stones toward greater wisdom,
Understanding,
And compassion.
I surrender my imperfections and shortcomings to your divine love and grace.
Wash me clean,
Renew my spirit,
And grant me the strength and wisdom to walk a path of righteousness and love.
May forgiveness be the bridge that mends broken relationships and restores harmony within my heart and soul.
Help me to rebuild trust where it has been shattered and to nurture love where it has been wounded.
In this sacred moment of seeking forgiveness,
I place my trust in your infinite compassion and power of redemption.
Amen.
So be it.
Now take a moment to reflect on your desire for forgiveness and allow the sense of grace and renewal to wash over you.
Trust in the power of forgiveness to heal and transform both within and around you.
