Prayer of Confession

Heavenly Father,

I come before You in humility and repentance, confessing all of my sins. I have sinned against You in my thoughts, words, and actions. I have not loved You with all of my heart, soul, mind, and strength. Moreover, I have not loved my neighbor as myself.

I have disobeyed Your commands and turned away from Your will for my life. I have taken Your grace for granted and have not lived a life of gratitude and thankfulness. I have been selfish and self-centered, and have not put Your kingdom and Your righteousness first.

I confess my pride, anger, envy, and covetousness. I have been unfaithful in my relationships and have broken the trust of those around me. I have been judgmental and critical of others, and have not shown the love and compassion that You have called me to show.

I am truly sorry for all of my sins, and I humbly ask for Your forgiveness. I know that Your love and grace are sufficient for me, and I trust in Your mercy and Your power to cleanse me from all unrighteousness.

Help me to live a life that is pleasing to You, and to walk in Your ways. Fill me with Your Spirit, and give me the strength and wisdom to resist temptation and to overcome sin.

I pray this in the name of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. Amen.
