Prayer of Confession
LISTEN IN
O
Lord Jesus, we sing your praises and call you our king. But often we
are as blind as those who lined the streets when you entered Jerusalem.
Blinded by our own ideas of who you are, we fail to see you in those we
encounter every day. Blinded by
our judgment and criticism, we miss
what you are doing all around us. Forgive our sin and heal us. Light of
the World, open our eyes that we might see you and receive your grace,
your love and your hope, we humbly pray. Amen.
*Silent Confession
*Declaration of Forgiveness
Pastor: Jesus is the source of eternal salvation for all who
