Our worship leader/pastor wrote this and we read it as a corporate confession at church on Sunday. I need to read and live this!
"Father, we confess that we are glory seekers who seek after our own glory rather than yours. We have craved the approval of men and have avoided confrontation and speaking truth to one another in love. We have behaved differently around others in order to hide our true self and have lived as if we have forgotten our identity in Christ. Remind us, oh Lord, that you alone are glorious and that you are completely satisfied in Christ who has secured our standing and approval with you. Crucify our pride that leads us to fear others and help us declare in our hearts, our lives, and our mouths. "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?" Psalm 27:1"
