come boldly

Confession of Sin

Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against You in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved You with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of Your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in Your will, and walk in Your ways, to the glory of Your Name. 

 Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us all our sins through our Lord Jesus Christ, strengthen us in all goodness, and by the power of the Holy Spirit keep us in eternal life.

May the words of Isaiah 12 be our assurance this day:

Surely God is my salvation; 

    I will trust and not be afraid.

 The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense;

    he has become my salvation.” 

With joy you will draw water 

    from the wells of salvation. 

In that day you will say:

         “Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name;

                make known among the nations what he has done,

                 and proclaim that his name is exalted. 

         Sing to the Lord, for he has done glorious things;

                let this be known to all the world.

           Shout aloud and sing for joy, people of Zion, 

                for great is the Holy One of Israel among you.”

                            -Isaiah 12:2-6

We come boldly to the throne of grace this day, O Lord, to confess all that we lack, knowing You are gracious and quick to forgive, drawing towards us in love.

Amen
