Corresponding Liturgy written by Allie Hobbs:

“On Being Made Pure”

Isaiah 1:18

I see a stained, patched up, struggling mess.

Riddled with shame,

Drowning in guilt,

Paralyzed by fear.

But you invite me in--you transform my heart.

What was riddled with shame is reconstructed with new life.

What was drowning in guilt is designed with grace.

What was paralyzed by fear is presented with purpose.

I now see an invitation.

Like snow quietly covering the ground, Jesus, you cover my mess and make me pure.

Keep me coming to you, oh God.
