1 John 1:8-9
8 If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the
truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will
forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
Praise be to our loving Father for his grace and kindness
toward His repentant children! Though we stand the sin-stained sons of fallen
Adam. Though we wallow in the soul-corrupting death-reek by which we were even
conceived.
Though we bear our lives forth in the habits of wickedness to which
our base natures are so accustomed, still does the Lord remain ever faithful to
forgive those who ask it of Him! Still does the Master of all look kindly upon
His children, ever resurrecting their hearts to new life! Still does the Father
of all glory count us, who are worthless of our own measure, to be worthy the
sacrifice of the very Son of heaven! Praise Him again! Praise be to the King of
all creation, most merciful and true!
