A Prayer for Humble Forgiveness with Rachael Hartzell

As moms, our instinct is to protect our kids—especially their hearts. In this episode Rachael shares a tender story about her young daughter navigating hurt and injustice when a peer repeatedly refused to call her by her name. What began as a moment of frustration became a powerful lesson in forgiveness, humility, and love in action.This episode challenges us to examine our own habits of forgiveness. Do we simply say the words and move on, or are we willing to forgive in ways that actively reflect Christ’s love?

Reference: Ephesians 4:31-32

Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, it’s so easy for me to give in to my anger and frustration when someone wrongs me, especially my loved ones, and even harder for me to put aside my pride and forgive them. Lord, help me cultivate the same tender love You pour over me every day, despite my sins, and humble my heart so I can live out my faith in love and forgiveness with my family.

In Jesus’ name, amen.
