Prayer after a bitter defeat

Father,

Losing like this is painful and leaves a bitter taste in our mouths.

Failures like this threaten to rob us of the joy and satisfaction we love about (sport).

Please restore our hearts, our bodies, and our minds. 

Help us learn from this defeat and return to compete again.

Please restore to us the passion for and fulfillment of our lives in (sport).

Amen.
