Sin
Wash me clean from my guilt. Purify me from my sin (Psalm 51:2; NLT).
So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them (Genesis 1:27; NLT).
“Follow me and be my disciple,” Jesus said to him. So Matthew got up and followed him (Matthew 9:9; NLT).
Lord,
Please strip away
My sins,
Faults,
And weaknesses.
Wash away my guilt,
Restore me to your image,
And help me to follow
Your dear Son.
In his most precious name,
Amen.
