O Lord our God,  you know us better than we know ourselves. As we come before you now, believers and doubters alike,we all share a deep need, for we are all lost without your grace. Search us, O God, and know our hearts, test us and know our troubled thoughts. Give us true repentance.  Forgive us all our wrongs. Transform us by your Spirit to live for you each day,  to learn to serve each other  and, through the grace of Jesus Christ our Lord, to come at last to heaven.          Amen.
