Prayer of Confession 3

Call to Confession:
Remember that our Lord Jesus Christ
is able to sympathize with us in our weaknesses.
In every respect he was tempted as we are,
yet without sin.
Let us therefore approach the throne of grace with
boldness,
so that we may receive mercy
and find grace to help in time of need.
—Hebrews :-
