Corporate Confession of Sin

God of All Comfort,

We have failed to see you as our Rock and Refuge. We confess that we too often fear man more than we fear you. We often seek the praise of man over simply seeking to please you. We also forget that you are with us in every trial. You are all-powerful and all-good, yet we too easily move to despair when things do not go our way.

We humbly repent and ask your forgiveness. Thank you that even though we forget you, you always remember us. We are ever grateful for your mercy to us in Christ Jesus, by which you promise to remember our sins no more. Cause us to be restless until we find our rest in you. Through Christ and in the Holy Spirit we pray, amen.
