Prayer based on Luke 12:58. Themes: Justice, Wisdom, Humility.
Dear Lord, as I journey through life, I pray that you guide me and help me to avoid any conflicts or disputes with others. If I do find myself in a situation where I am at odds with someone, I ask that you give me the wisdom and discernment to handle it with grace and humility. Help me to seek reconciliation and peace, and to do everything in my power to avoid being dragged before a judge or thrown into prison. May your love and mercy be with me always, and may I always strive to live in harmony with those around me. Amen.
