Pause for Prayer: THURSDAY 5/7

For the selfishness that often shapes my days,
I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For the worries I let cheat me of my hope,
I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For the times when I think only of myself,
I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For the ways in which I fail to love and serve,
I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For my unkind thoughts, my unkind words and deeds,
I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For the grudges and resentments I hold on to,
I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For infidelities (large, medium and small),
I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For failing to respect my common sense,
I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For spreading rumors, hearsay and gossip,
I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For promises not kept and truth not told,

I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For thinking I've no growing left to do,
I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For foolishness that should be far behind me,
I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For laziness that keeps my from my work, 

I am sorry, Lord: forgive me... 

For anger I let fester in my soul, 

I am sorry, Lord: forgive me... 

For the crazy thought that I know more than you, 

I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For fantasies I shouldn't entertain,

I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

For jealous thoughts I harbor in my heart, 

I am sorry, Lord: forgive me... 

For all the precious time I waste,

I am sorry, Lord: forgive me... 

For ignoring you, not making time to pray, 

I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

And for thinking I've done nothing wrong, 

I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...

I know I'm not a saint so why's it hard for me

to say that I'm a sinner?

Help me see myself as you do, Lord,

to see the wrong I've done and then to pray...

I am sorry, Lord: forgive me...
