A Prayer for Reconcilliation

In today's episode by Gina L. Smith, we reflect on the ministry of reconciliation and how it applies to one of the most important relationships in our lives—our relationships with our parents. For years, family dynamics, unspoken pain, and even cultural labels cancloud how we see those who raised us. But Scripture calls us to view others not from a worldly perspective, but through the eyes of Christ.
Parents are more than their shortcomings, and when we choose to see them with compassion, we open the door for healing, restoration, and peace.

Reference: 2 Corinthians 5: 16-20

Prayer: Father, help me to see my parents through eyes of grace, not from a worldly point of view, but through your eyes. Help me to follow your example and be an ambassador of reconciliation. In the same way that I have been reconciled to you, being loved and forgiven unconditionally, I pray that I would seek that in my relationships , especially in my relationship with my parents. Help me to see the good they have done, and how you have sovereignly used them in my life, and not just those things that were not done perfectly. As I live this reconciliation and grace out, may those around you come to know you and be reconciled to you as well.
