the ruts of our disobedience

our prayer of confession
our beginning in worship
of confessing our sins
when we miss the mark
remembering too, admitting
the ruts of our disobedience
failing to repent, to turn
to follow more closely
our promise, our joy
in the Savior, only
needing this season
to remember His mercy
