356 FORMS OF PRAYER. A deep sense of his corruptions will powerfully draw the real penitent, to an humbling avowal of sin in prayer ; but it is to be feared that some, who, because they cannot charge themselves . with flagrant offences, do not consider a con- trite confession of the sibs of the heart, and of the daily life, an indispensable part of their devotions. But God will charge many with sin who neglect to charge themselves. Did they attend to the remonstrances ofaconscience not laid asleep by neglect, or quieted by pallia- tives, they would find that were the daily omissions alone, of even their best days, registered and presented to them, they would form no inconsiderable cata- logue for repentance. There are too many who do not con- sider that all sins are equally a breach of the Divine law. Without pretending to bring all sins, small and great, to one common level, we should remember that all sin is an offence against a gracious Father.
