Prayer of Confession

"Prayer of Confession

Hear our prayer of confession, Oh God.
For there are a million ways in which we are unfaithful to you.
We set before our eyes the longings of our hearts,
While your word gathers dust.
We are weak and frail and powerless against sin,
Because we regard the grasping of your precepts as burdensome.
Our lips say one thing, and our lives say another,
As we worship what we have acquired and what we long to acquire.
We are your bride and yet practice harlotry.
Hear our prayer of confession, Oh God.
For there are more than a million ways in which you show yourself faithful.
You retrieve your bride from the street corner,
And establish her in your home.
With grateful hearts we beg you to correct our longings,
And make your word alive in our beings.
Amen."
