The God Articles Sunday Prayer (A Prayer of Confession) Good and gracious God, Far too frequently we find ourselves taking on the moniker of Christian but not following through with the behavior which should accompany that name. We gossip about our neighbor. We dispense judgements against those who are different from us. We leap to negative conclusions about others when their behavior doesnt match our expectations. We turn a blind eye to those in need when it seems too inconvenient or costly to respond to their need. In short, we do the opposite of what Jesus would have done – and, yet, we wish to be known as his followers. Help us become better followers. Continue to grow in us a love that knows no limits or boundaries. Open our eyes to the depth of grace extended to us and inspire us to extend to others that same kind of grace. May we live lives that are known for their love and for the way they actively pursue sharing grace with every person we meet. Amen. (Mark)
