第二十六天 不再抱怨

为儿子祷告

主啊，我祷告求你使我的儿子×××能活在持续的宽恕中，将你那宽厚的宽恕指教他，好让他能自由地宽恕他人。帮助他在决定原谅别人的时候是依据你对我们的要求，而不是凭着当时还不错的心情。愿他明了：原谅别人并不是认可别人的行为是对的，相反的，这是在释放自己。帮助他了解，惟有你才知道我们每个人真正的原委，这也正是他为什么没有权利去审判别人的原因。

主啊，你的话语说："爱弟兄的，就是住在光明中，在他并没有绊跌的缘由。惟独恨弟兄的，是在黑暗里，且在黑暗里行，也不知道往哪里去，因为黑暗叫他眼睛瞎了。"(约壹2：10～11)指出我生命中仍有怀怨的黑暗处，我不愿生命中有那种黑暗，我要看清并明白所去的方向。我祷告我的孩子也能如此，愿他永远行在爱与宽恕的光明中，使他能够原谅家人、朋友，也原谅其他所有人。教导他放手把过去交给你，使他能继续向前享受你为他所预备的一切。不要让他内心怀藏着憎恨、苦毒、愤怒，帮助他在这些感觉一产生之时就立刻交托给你。

我祷告他能原谅自己多次的失败，愿他不因为这个世界及生活中的遭遇而责怪你，主。我依据你的话来祷告，求你使他能爱他的仇敌，为咒诅他的人祝福，善待那些恨他的人，并为那些恨他、逼迫他的人祷告，好使他全然享受你所赐的福(参太5：44～45)。我奉耶稣的名祈求你使他能丰丰满满活在你的宽恕中，并从宽恕中得到全然的释放。

Lord, I pray that You would enable my son **** to live in ongoing forgiveness.  Teach him the depth of Your forgiveness toward him so that he can be freely forgiving toward others. Help him to make the decision to forgive based on what You've asked us to do and not on what feels good at the moment.  May he understand that forgiveness doesn't justify the other person's actions; instead, it makes him free. Help him to understand  that only You know the whole story about any of us, and that's why he doesn't have the right to judge.

Lord, Your Word says, "He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him. But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes" (1 John 2:10-11). Show me places where I walk in the darkness of forgiveness.  I don't want that in my life. I want to see clearly and know where I'm going. And I pray that for my child as well. May he always walk in the light of love and forgiveness. Enable him to forgive family members, friends, and all others as well. Teach him to release the past to You so that he can move into all that You have for him. Don't allow him to harbor resentment, bitterness, and anger, but rather help him to turn these feelings over to you immediately whenever they creep in.

I pray that he will forgive himself for times of failure, and may he never blame You, Lord, for things that happen on this earth and in his life. According to Your Word I pray that he will love his enemies, bless those who curse him, do good to those who hate him, and pray for those who spitefully use and persecute him, so that he may enjoy all Your blessings (Matthew 5:44-45). In Jesus' name, I pray that he will live in the fullness of Your forgiveness for him and walk in the freedom of forgiveness in his own heart.

为女儿祷告

主啊，我祷告求你使我的女儿×××能活在持续的宽恕中，将你那宽厚的宽恕指教她，好让她能自由地宽恕她人。帮助她在决定原谅别人的时候是依据你对我们的要求，而不是凭着当时还不错的心情。愿她明了：原谅别人并不是认可别人的行为是对的，相反的，这是在释放自己。帮助她了解，惟有你才知道我们每个人真正的原委，这也正是她为什么没有权利去审判别人的原因。
