Monitoring and Evaluation
We live busy lives, and if we aren't careful, years will slip by without an evaluation. Lent is a great time to take a few moments to consider how life is going for you. Are you fulfilled? Do you find joy in your faith and life? Are you worried or anxious? The prayers offered in Prayers of Confession for Lent focus on one aspect of life for each of the 40 days. As you reflect on the topic, you can determine if you need to make changes or you are doing well in that area. "The unexamined life is not worth living." Socrates.
Book Excerpt
Prayers of Confession for Lent
Time for Listening to God LORD, all too often our busy lives crowd you out. We may be unwil ing to get up early enough to make time for you before our activities begin, and we fail to stop until the end of the day.
By that time, we’re tired
and don’t wish to concentrate.
Forgive us for not making time with you a priority.
You spent nights in prayer, and we fail to spend half an hour with you.
Help us to pray with all our hearts
and to obey your laws.
Move us to rise early to cry out for help and put our hope in your words.
When we wake up in the night, may our minds be focused on your promises.
Let us be revived as we draw closer to you.
LORD, in your mercy, hear our prayer.
Based on Psalm 119:145-149
