We have fought too selfishly for our own glory. We have clung too tightly to our desire and to our faction and our plan. We come to you seeking the strength to repent. Turn us to your wisdom instead of our own. Turn us to honesty instead of falsehood. Turn us to humility and service instead of pride and selfseeking. We come to you for a blessing. Like jacob, we cling to you and will not let go until you have blessed us for you are good and gracious and loving and in you we put our trust.
