Lord Jesus, today we bring to You our wounds. O God who healed the sick, the grieving, the wounded, have mercy on us all. May Your love that surpasses all human understanding – fill us, cleanse us and strengthen us. Remove from each one of us any deep inner wounds which we got right from the time we were conceived, up to today. We pray that we can forgive and forget. Help heal the ones we have wounded too. May we never delay the healing process with our cold hearts. Amen
