13. Prayer of Confession
God, our comforter and guide, we confess what comes between us and You. We have been blind to the faults in ourselves that we so readily detect in others:

14. Prayer of Confession
prizing appearance and credentials, and failing to see the heart; rushing headlong into temptation, without thought for what is right;

15. Prayer of Confession
keeping secret what would shame us, if it were known; denying truths voiced by people we disdain. God of light, expose to us our sin,

16. Prayer of Confession
that we may confess it and turn from it, and so live in the light of Your forgiveness and love.

Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be Thy name,

Give us this day our daily bread;

And forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors;
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the kingdom, and the power,
and the glory, forever. Amen.
