One who is rich in mercy -
We confess that our sins and trespasses bring death, and we seek forgiveness for following the world’s course instead of Christ’s way.
We confess that all of us once lived among the disobedient, and we seek forgiveness for living like everyone else.
But God…even when our trespasses made us dead, You made us alive together with Christ, raised us up with Christ, and seated us with Christ.
Grace - Your gift - saved us.
May Your gift resurrect us, so we may enflesh what You have made us - created in Christ Jesus for good works.
May Your gift become our way of life.
Amen.
