When you get hurt by those you love.

I've experienced in life, we often get hurt. It often comes from those you love. The more one loves, the more one gets hurt. Moses was deeply hurt by the Israelites - the people he gave his life for. Pray this prayer.

O Lord, often we do not remember that You were hurt by those with whom You lived with and loved so dearly. Seeing You suffered in that way helps us better understand and deal with our own pain and hurts. We know we can bring them all to You the great burden bearer.

Have compassion on those who have been dreadfully hurt by those they love. Take their bitterness away and enable them to feel Your healing power. Bring reconciliation between those who should love and care for each other.

We confess, there have been times when others have been hurt by our own selfishness. May Your Holy Spirit give us new life so that we can overcome our selfish nature and serve You with love. We pray in Jesus' name.
