Confession for Week 3
March 7th, 2010I am lost without you, Lord.
I am unfounded, ungrounded, disconnected, roaming aimlessly in a world of chaos without you.
The world teases me. It tempts me with gold and silver, material goods with instant gratification, and lustful relationships more shallow than a tablespoon. There is no hope here without you.
Forgive me, Lord.
Forgive us for seeking home without you. Forgive us for seeking joy beyond you. Forgive us for trying to live without you guiding the way.
Forgive us, Lord.
Guide us and transform us. Place upon our hearts a mark that always takes us back to you no matter how far we get away from you. While you won’t place a fence to keep us in, let us see how wonderful living within your presence was, and is, and forever will be, so we might grow at home with you.
With you, Lord, I am never lost.
With you, Lord, I am founded, grounded, connected, going with your grace into a world in need of transformation. Thank you, Lord.
