A prayer for repentance. March 19, 2022
My soul longs for you.
My soul longs for the living God.
I seek your face in humility for forgiveness of my sins.
It was your mercy that guided every footstep and your right hand held me up when I stumbled and staggered in darkness.
You pour on me grace—grace upon grace, yet I still stray away.
Forgive me of my folly and pride.
Forgive me for my lack of trust in you.
Deliver me from myself and my sins, lest I interfere in your will.
You are my salvation; do not delay in sending relief, make haste to me.
I bow my knee to you, knowing you gave me what I did not deserve and keeping from me what I did.
You are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. You show love even to the thousandth generation, forgiving our inquiry, transgression, and sin.
I am grateful for your steadfast love towards me, and the faithfulness you have shown.
Yahweh, I love you.
