Today, we pray over dead relationships

Lord Jesus, today we pray for the ones who are living in buried strife, hatred or grief – in dead relationships. We pray that You will breathe Your Spirit into these hearts. Lord Jesus, touch spouses, friends, colleagues, ministers and members of families; inspire us to make the effort to heal each other, without letting go or letting it be. Let us know that forgiveness and restoration is possible through You and make active efforts. Help us heal, before we mark Your birth, the birth of the Son of God – who is love personified. Amen.
