CALL TO WORSHIP:
We come before the Lord to worship our greatest treasure. 
   We have known great blessings in our lives, but none
   compare to knowing You.
Out of God’s providence, all our needs are met.
    We need not worry about tomorrow, our God goes
    before us.
 Even in the toughest moments of our lives, we will not fear.
   .We trust in God.
Let us worship today our greatest treasure and portion in
This life, the Lord our God.

 *PRAYER OF CONFESSION:
Gracious God, our sins are too heavy to carry, too real to hide,
and too deep to undo.  Forgive what our lips tremble to name,
what our hearts can no longer bear, and what has become for us a consuming fire of judgement. Set us free from a past that we cannot change; open us to a future in which we can be changed; and grant us grace to grow more and more in Your likeness and image; through Jesus Christ our Lord, the light of the world, we pray. Amen
