A drawing of hands joined in prayer and holding a cross on a chain
Short prayer for repentance
This is a short Christian prayer that I have found on a Romanian website and decided to translate into English because I particularly liked it. May it help bring those who read it closer to God and grant them His great mercy.
Lord, forgive me. Do not judge me according to my weakness and wickedness, but rather according to Your kindness. I have sinned like a human. Forgive me like the God that You are.
( translated from Romanian into English by Lucian Hodoboc )
We should receive some punishment to the things we have done.
Otherwise people would forget what fear is and wouldn’t think twice before doing the same stuff again.
A very nice prayer, though it all counts on God being merciful in the first place. Which for most of us I do hope god is.
