'God who refuses to leave us alone'
PRAYER OF CONFESSION today at church:
"Lord of Life, this is the time when the church says to the world, 'Come see what God has done. Come listen to a message that could not have been delivered any other way. Come sing about the possibility of a world at peace where everyone matters. Come pray on behalf of a God who refuses to leave us alone. Come rejoice at the upside down power of an infant with the world on his shoulders.' In the name of one born to us in the imagination of our hearts, and reborn in us each time we love and forgive. Amen."
