Lord, Forgive

My arrogance, in which I am slow to seek you
My lust, in which I desire all else but you
My fear, in which I shrink from you and your call
My worry, in which I strive and flail
My selfishness, in which I consider myself better than others
My pride, in which I ignore my need and my community
My greed, in which I don't find you or anything else enough
My thoughtlessness, in which I am quick to hurt and offend
My frustration, in which I complain and stress
over trivial things
My apathy, in which I choose not to feel for fear that compassion or
caring will overwhelm me.

In all these things Lord,
I have shown myself foolish, calloused, and
downright rebellious.

You are certainly enough
My life, my breath, and my true love.
