+
+## Prayer
+
+Our Father,
+
+We come to you as sinners, inheritors of futile ways.
+Following our first father according to the flesh, we turned from You and
+forgot You, cultivating inexcusable ignorance.
+We are heirs of a sinful nature, of defiled hearts given to corrupt desires.
+
+Both we and our forefathers have sinned.
+We insulted You by placing our trust in innumerable idols made of perishable things.
+The worshipful cravings of our hearts drifted to unworthy objects, rather than
+the one God that could satisfy.
+
+We have placed our hope for happiness in money and possessions and family and
+all manner of created things.
+We fixate on an age that is passing.
+Desiring the honor of man, we act boastfully and we devour one another, while
+forgetting our great hope for the honor that will come at the revelation of
+Your Son.
+
+We take little joy in the glories of the mysteries veiled in ages passed.
+
+We beneficiaries of the great wonder for which creation exists still seek after
+the cravings of the ignorance from which we are now free.
+We know by Your Word that we must be reminded not to indulge fleshly passions.
+We indulge the desires of the natural man, as we neglect the deeper longings
+that You have awakened within us.
+
+You have awakened us to tastes for Bread more delectable than creation could
+ever imagine, but we indulgent people insult You still.
+We do not glut on the all satisfying glories found in Your Word.
+We taste, but we do not devour.
+We do not drink deeply Your inexpressible joys.
+We settle for the common delights of a fallen creation that was always intended
+to be less than that to which we are now called.
+
+Sinful passions pervade our lives, but we come to You now in hope.
+
+By blood, we are sinners, but the blood of Your Son is righteous and is given
+as ransom for us.
+
+We confess now our sin and our hope in words, shortly we will confess again as
+we partake.
+Hear our plea, as we again appeal to You again for a good conscience.
+
+It was for us, for our sin, that the body and blood before us now was broken
+and shed.
+And in the presence of this blood, no accuser can stand, and so we come to You
+now.
+
+You, oh God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, be Father to us.
+Help us to turn from the inheritance of Adam, and to Your inheritance, that was
+secured for us by the precious blood of Your Son.
+
+It is in the name of Your righteous Son Christ Jesus that that we come to You.
+Amen.
