Prayers of Forgiveness
Prayer of Forgiveness for Family Wounds
A modern prayer of intergenerational forgiveness, drawing on Psalm 68:6 and the biblical theme that both blessing and sin travel through families.
Heavenly Father, You set the lonely in families and You know the wounds that come from those closest to us.
I bring before You my father and my mother, my brothers and sisters, and all my kin. Where they have failed me, I forgive them. Where I have failed them, forgive me.
Break every chain passed down through my family line, and let mercy flow where hurt has ruled for generations. Amen.
Traditional Christian devotion
About the prayer
It is prayed in retreats and healing ministries where the hardest forgiveness is usually the closest one, and it deliberately runs in both directions: forgiving and asking to be forgiven.
