Lord, I have a confession to make.
At times, the pressures and stresses of the moment catch me off guard. I act
hastily, rashly, and thoughtlessly. I say and do things I later regret. In the
heat of the moment, I can allow my temper, impatience, and selfishness overcome
the goodness and compassion you have brought into my life. I respond in ways
that hurt others and dishonor you. I confess that though I long to have the
mind of Christ and respond in all situations as Jesus modeled for me, I fail
too often. I admit that I am shortsighted, forgetful, and fearful. I ask your
forgiveness, Lord. Restore to me the joy of your salvation and the love of
humanity. Amen.
