Prayer of Confession
God, when you called each of us into being, you delighted in your works. You
gifted us with differences that illuminate the breadth of beauty, wisdom, and practices of love in your creation. In whatever ways we still struggle to accept and celebrate our own unique offerings, free us from narrow thinking that confines, constrains, or condemns your good work in us. Help us to desire you, Lord. Help
us to yearn for your presence. Pour your baptismal waters over us again. Nourish and heal us so that we may joyfully serve you.
