Thank you, for another morning. No one has ever been so loving & faithful as you have. Thank you for answering my prayers despite me having such a low and filthy opinion of my self. Lord, keep me humble, in the presence of danger. That I may learn to suffer like a slave for your glory. Teach me to offer the other side when one is stuck. I know and understand, that I am no one special... But I asked that you bless those all round me. Teach me to honor, to esteem my neighbor. Teach me to sacrifice myself for my enemy. Those in the world say differently, and offer advice that I can follow. But the world makes too much sense and offers so many stale promises. It's too easy to get caught up in safety. It's too easy to think only about my feelings and ignore those of others. It's too easy to be self-righteous and pretend to be holy... Lord, I want to die to myself. I want hear your orders for my life of holy slavery. Your will be done. Not theirs, not mine, YOURS. If I need to be silent and wait, I will. Humble me, master. That I may listen only to you. Punish me that my trials may serve in my growth and in your glory...
