All of us have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. In our sinfulness, let us stand before God and confess the ways in which we have broken covenant, and seek God's mercy. Prayer of Confession The mountain. The sea, The wilderness. All are symbols of the wandering of your people. Between freedom and covenant, there is uncertainty and we falter. Impatience takes over, and we grumble, forgetting again what you have done for us. We allow our deepest fears to overtake us, to claim our spirits, our very lives. Forgive us, we pray. Heal our division. Set our sights on you, that we might be restored to wholeness and to life. Assurance of God's Grace God has promised that when we confess our sin, God who is faithful and just, will forgive us our sin, removing it as far as the east is from the west, and remembering it no more. In the name of Jesus Christ, we are forgiven! Thanks be to God! Since God has forgiven us in Christ, let us also forgive one another. The peace of Christ be with you. Please extend the peace of Christ to all whom you encounter this day.
