When we’re fallen, and when we’re lost, God comes with one question. Not the question “Why did you do that?” Not the question “What did you do wrong?” The very first God-question of the Old Testament, of the whole Bible, is a love question howling out of God’s heart: “Where are you?” God’s love never stops looking for you, trying to find you and gently draw you back close to Him… Your God looks for you when you’re lost. Your God calls out for you when you’re ashamed and broken and hurting. - Ann Voskamp

– The Rupture

– Gospel

But amazingly, mercifully, even though Yahweh had every right to wipe out our rebellious race, he chose another course-redemption In a move that continues to confound me, God spared the lives of Adam and Eve (and their unborn children) by redirecting the fury of the curse toward another-the battered flesh of his own Son. - Sand, The Epic of Eden

– Confession and Assurance

Eternal Father, God of our ancestors, before your power all things tremble but through your son, we approach your throne. We have done wrong and neglected to do right; our sins weigh heavily on our hearts: Lord have mercy, count them not against us. Grant us the joy of forgiveness and lighten our hearts with the glory of Christ, who died and rose again for us. Amen. - Anglican Church of Kenya's prayer book
