A Prayer for Forgiveness

Lord, please forgive me. Forgive me for looking to others for the acceptance that only you can cover me in. Forgive me for looking to my job (or lack thereof) for the security only you can richly provide. Forgive me for looking to my collection of books for the wisdom only you can share. Forgive me for looking to my surroundings for the peace that only you can grant. Forgive me for looking to my church for the faith that only you can create in me. And forgive me for seeking that which is trivial and temporal--as well as the praise of men. And above all else: Forgive me for not seeking you and your Kingdom more.

Amen
