We bow before You, Lord, in humble repentance.

We confess that we make bad choices,

think inappropriate thoughts, and

concern ourselves with the things of this world.

But You have overcome the world

and set us free from our sin.

Jesus bore the cross and, by His resurrection,

proved that we can be saved by faith through grace.

On our own, we fail. With You, we succeed.

By ourselves, we’re fearful and unsure of our path.

With You leading us, we will surely reach our destination.

In Jesus’ name, 

Amen.
