Respecting the beliefs of all Alaskans, and speaking out of my Christian tradition, I offer up this confession as we move towards Good Friday and Easter. We have not loved you with our whole heart, and mind, and strength. We have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. Have mercy, O God. Our past unfaithfulness, the pride, hypocrisy, and apathy that have infected our lives, we confess to you. Have mercy, O God. Our self-indulgent appetites and ways, our distorted priorities and our exploitation of other 2013-03-22 House Journal Page 0612 people, we confess to you. Have mercy, O God. Our neglect of human need and suffering, and our indifference to injustice and cruelty, we confess to you. Have mercy, O God. Our false judgments, our uncharitable thoughts toward our neighbors, and our prejudice and contempt toward those who differ from us, we confess to you. Have mercy, O God. Our waste and pollution of your creation, and our lack of concern for those who come after us, we confess to you. Have mercy, O God. Restore us, O God, and let your anger depart from us. Turn our hearts to you so we may live. Amen. The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Representative Herron.
