PSALM 51 – a prayer for forgiveness 

None of us are perfect. It can be hard to face that reality, especially when we like to point the finger at others instead of ourselves. But all of us are sinners in need of a savior; and, thanks be to God, Jesus Christ has taken care of that. Every day, you are made clean and washed new by Christ. May our thoughts, words, and deeds reflect his forgiveness.  

– Pr. Alex  

Let us pray: Almighty God, by our baptism into the death and resurrection of your Son, Jesus Christ, you turn us form the old life of sin. Grant that we who are reborn to new life in him may live in righteousness and holiness all of our days, through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. (ELW p.86)
