Lord, you are truth. You value
truth in me. Yet, I have a confession to make. Sometimes I am tempted because
cheating seems to be the easiest and quickest way to get what I want.
Forgive me for the times I have told lies,
kept miscounted change, or misled my friends.
Grant that I shall come to love truth and hate lies – especially my
own.
I want all my words and deeds to be
free of sham and make-believe.
In the
classroom, in games with my friends, as I trade at the store, help me to be
trustworthy.
Day by day, I want to live
in such close friendship with you that nothing will exist in my life that is
counterfeit or insincere.
Amen.
