Prayer of a Separated/Divorced Person

Father, I belong to you.
I place myself anew in your hands 
and acknowledge you as Master and Lord of my life.
Grant me the gift of a forgiving heart 
and cleanse me of any anger,
hostility or revenge.
Heal my hurts and wounds and teach me to rely on your love.
Grant me wisdom of heart 
and strengthen me by your grace to move on in faith,
in trust and in love.
Thank you Lord for your love in my life.

Amen.
