The prayer

A prayer to pray now

Father, Your Word says that when I stop hiding my sin and tell You the truth, You forgive me. So here is the truth about today. I said something snippy. I did not do the thing I should have done. I am sorry. Please forgive me. Then I can breathe again. Saying sorry sounds heavy, but it is actually the lightest thing once it is done. Amen.
