Prayer based on Leviticus 6

Almighty God, we have sinned in so many ways. We have taken what is not ours. We must restore it in full, but this cannot make up for our offense against You and others. Only the blood of Christ can take away our sin. Our transgressions bring trouble upon Your church. Our lives should be given entirely to You, yet we have reserved so much for ourselves. What offering can be given for our peace? What can we do to meet the demands of Your justice? Only the work of Christ, our High Priest can remove our ugliness, for we are unclean. He has consumed the abomination of our rebellion, and we have been healed. We thank You for His great righteousness and mercy.
