Confession and Pardon Emily Clark
God of eternity, you know how often we travel down the rocky roads of doubt and fear. We have chances to offer ourselves in service, but only give our contempt to those in need. We could share the living waters with the world, but want to store it in jars for safe-keeping. Fountain of Grace, you turn towards us, to meet us wherever we are. You break open our hearts, so we might be made whole.
In Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, our thirst for hope and joy is quenched. Silence is kept God does not disappoint us. Our sins are forgiven, our lives are made whole, we are sent forth to serve. In Jesus Christ, living water breaks through our hearts, in such abundance that we don't have enough buckets to hold it all. Thanks be to God, Amen.
