'Heavenly  Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your  direction and guidance.  We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call  evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done.  We have lost our  spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We have exploited the poor  and called it the lottery. We have rewarded laziness and called it  welfare.  We have killed our unborn and called it choice. We  have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.  We have  neglected to discipline our children and called it building self  esteem.  We have abused power and called it politics. We have  coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.  We  have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom  of expression.  We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our  forefathers and called it enlightenment.  Search us, Oh God, and know  our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and set us free.  Amen!'
