Confession
O God, we confess the blindness -- that is not even aware of sinning;
The pride -- that dares not admit that it is wrong;
The selfishness -- that can see nothing but its own will;
The righteousness -- that knows no fault;
The callousness -- that has ceased to care;
The defiance -- that does not regret its own sins;
The evasion -- that always tries to make excuses;
The coldness of heart -- that is too hardened to repent.
God, we are sinners; be merciful to us.
