Forgiveness does not erase what happened, but it can stop pain from spreading further. When we carry anger for too long, it slowly hardens the heart like a scratched record replaying the same broken chorus. Sometimes healing begins when we choose mercy instead of revenge.

🙏 Prayer to Let Go of Bitterness
Lord, give us the strength to forgive even when it feels difficult. Heal the wounds caused by anger, pride, and hurt. Teach us to choose mercy so peace can grow again within us and around us. Amen.
A prayer a day, keeps the soul from drifting away
