74 Bible verses about asking for forgiveness
Facing up to my mistakes and saying "I'm sorry" takes guts. It means pushing past pride and arrogance, and showing true humility. It's not about whether I was the one hurt; it's about always trying to please God in everything I do.
Even if the other person doesn't apologize, and the Holy Spirit nudges me to say I'm sorry anyway, I know I'll receive God's grace and favor. It might be tough for a lot of folks, but choosing to forgive is truly liberating. It sets me free to move forward.

It's so important to confess my sins and admit when I'm wrong to God, who frees me from all evil. His love and forgiveness cover every part of me; there's no limit to what He can forgive.
Our sins before thee we confess; O may they be forgiv’n! As we to others mercy show, we mercy beg from Heav’n.
My blood I thus pour forth, he cries, To cleanse the soul in sin that lies; In this the covenant is seal’d, And Heav’n’s eternal grace reveal’d.
