My God, You placed my sin on Your Son
And You credited His righteousness to me.
I rest in the Lamb, whose blood has washed me whiter than snow.
But, I confess that I am not holy in my thoughts, words, or deeds.
In my flesh I continue to put on the old rags of sin.
My prayers are stained with grumbling.
My tears are mixed with conceit and unbelief.
Help me to see my life as You see it.
Help me to grieve my sin and to trust the power of your redemption.
I confess my shallow and unthoughtful repentance.
I confess my weak and fickle faith.
Apart from Christ's life in me I can do nothing.
Hear my prayer.
Forgive my sin and continue to transform my life into Christ-like wholeness.
You are my Savior; in You alone I hope for salvation.
Amen.
Assurance of Pardon
What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all --how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died--more than that, who was raised to life--is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. Romans 8:31-34
