The Creator of the Universe is the starting point for your thinking, your actions, and your affections. 9 C o n f e s s i o n o f S i n Almighty God, we have sinned against You and against our fellow men in our thoughts, our words, and our deeds. We have sinned in the evil we have done and in the good we have not done. We have sinned through ignorance, through weakness, and through our own deliberate fault. We are truly sorry and repent of all our sins. For the sake of Your Son, Jesus Christ, who died for us, forgive us all that is past, and grant that we may serve You in newness of life to the glory of Your Name. Amen.
