Praying from Romans 1:23. Themes: idolatry, corruption, image

Dear God, please forgive us for trading your glory, which is incorruptible, for the likeness of images of corruptible man, birds, four-footed animals, and creeping things. Help us to always remember your greatness and to worship you alone. May we never be tempted to turn away from you and to put our trust in anything else. We ask for your mercy and grace to guide us on the right path. Amen.
