Prayer of Confession

Sometimes, our sins are too heavy to carry,too real to hide, and too deep to undo. But Jesus said, “My yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Let us bring to God in prayer our burden of sin and our yoke of guilt, confident and trusting in the Spirit of grace.

God who is greater than our fears, We confess that in our life we are afraid of many things. Sometimes it is the future we are most afraid of. So much is changing. Will we be safe? Will we loose the things we love? But when we remember your unfailing love in the past

We see that even when things change your love never fails us. Help us to be a sign of your love to others whose lives are full of trouble and unhappy change. In this way we will all know that you are with us even in our times of Lenten suffering. (Silence)

God the Creator Brings you new life, Forgives and redeems you. Take hold of this Forgiveness, and Live your life in the spirit of Jesus. Amen

The Word is Spoken Scripture 2Samuel 3:7a, 21:1-14 (exurbs)

3: 7 And Saul had a concubine, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah. 21: 1 While David was king there were three years in a row when the nation of Israel could not grow enough food. So David asked the LORD for help, and the LORD answered, "Saul and his family are guilty of murder, because he had the Gibeonites killed." 2 David had the Gibeonites come, and he talked with them. 3 He said, "What can I do to make up for what Saul did, so that you'll ask the LORD to be kind to his people again?"

4 The Gibeonites answered, "Silver and gold from Saul and his family are not enough. On the other hand, we don't have the right to put any Israelite to death." David said, "I'll do whatever you ask." 5 They replied, "Saul tried to kill all our people so that none of us would be left in the land of Israel. 6 Give us seven of his descendants. We will hang these men near the place where the LORD is worshiped in Gibeah, the hometown of Saul, the LORD's chosen king." "I'll give them to you," David said.

8 Saul and Rizpah the daughter of Aiah had two sons named Armoni and Mephibosheth. Saul's daughter Merab had five sons whose father was Adriel the son of Barzillai from Meholah. David took Rizpah's two sons and Merab's five sons and 9 turned them over to the Gibeonites, who hanged all seven of them on the mountain near the place where the LORD was worshiped. This happened right at the beginning of the barley harvest.

10 But Rizpah spread out some sackcloth on a nearby rock. She wouldn't let the birds land on the bodies during the day, and she kept the wild animals away at night. She stayed there from the beginning of the harvest until it started to rain. 11 David found out what Saul's wife Rizpah had done, and he went to the leaders of Jabesh to get the bones of Saul and his son Jonathan.

13-14 David had their bones taken to the land of Benjamin and buried in a side room in Saul's family burial place. Then he gave orders for the bones of the men who had been hanged on the mountain by the Gibeonites to be buried there. It was done, and God answered prayers to bless the land.
