Could it mean she was asking God's forgiveness for harboring Booth's pistols while he assassinated the president?

Basically I am curious about her making this statement at this particular time...i.e. right after Booth departed the boardinghouse and headed to the theater to assassinate Lincoln. Isn't she admitting she's up to her neck in his plot?

Or am I misunderstanding what she is saying?
