A Lenten Collect to Repent

Great counselor, our conscience and source of wisdom, move us in our hearts to repent of our sin and foolishness, that we would not be destroyed but receive your mercy and escape the consequences that evil requires, through Christ our savior who died that we might live and now reigns in goodness and love with the Father in you. Amen.

‘He asked them, “Do you think that because these Galileans suffered in this way they were worse sinners than all other Galileans? No, I tell you, but unless you repent you will all perish as they did.”‘ – Luke 13:2-3
