Most Holy God,
The path of life has many forks in the road. Some decisions are easy to make, others less so. We try to be faithful and wise in the directions we choose, but there are times when we intentionally choose the wrong path. Once we have gone so far, it is difficult to turn around. It could be in relationships, in the choice of activities, even in the way we manage our financial affairs. When we reach those points we pray for forgiveness, O Lord. It is difficult to change, but true and lasting grace comes from You. May we have the courage to correct our bad choices. May Your spirit guide us down the path of recovery. May our new life in Christ be a blessing to others. This is our prayer in Jesus’ name. AMEN.
