Our Response
Confessing our Sins:
Our Heavenly Father, acknowledging that our only right to come before you derives from the intercession of Jesus Christ, we do bow before you this day in repentance. Our lives have been given a high calling: To show forth your amazing grace. But our best efforts are filthy rags, as Isaiah confessed. Particularly, we confess our poor response to affliction. You call us to rest with faith and hope even in affliction, You desire us to wait patiently, to suffer without complaining like a good soldier of Christ Jesus, but we are far too much like Israel, who grumbled and complained in the wilderness, even crying out that they were better off in bondage. With tears we pray that you would restore our souls, create in us a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within us. Help us to act in accordance with your goodness and your steadfast love even when we suffer. You are our portion, change us to delight ourselves in you more and more. We pray by the help of the Spirit, in the name of the Son, amen. (Based on Lamentations 3:24-39)
