God, my life is a marketplace.
I am sorry that so many things, many of them good things, some not so good, have become
more important to me than You.
And I am sorry for pretending that they haven’t.
Breathe your Spirit into my life and once again cleanse, clarify, and connect me to You.
God, your church is a marketplace, too.
We are sorry that so many things, many of them good things, some not so good, have become
more important to us than You.
And we are sorry for pretending that they haven’t.
Breathe your Spirit into your church and once again cleanse, clarify, and connect us to You.
God, the world is a marketplace.
We are sorry that we have allowed, by our silence and complacency, so many things to become
more important in the world than You.
And we are sorry for pretending that we haven’t.
Breathe your Spirit into the world and once again cleanse, clarify, and connect Your world in a
new and powerful way, through the promise of life eternal
that is revealed in Christ Jesus.
Amen.
