Humble me, Lord.
Forgive me for the ways in which I love your gifts more than I love the giver...
Forgive me for the ways in which I am silent out of fear, when you ask me to speak with boldness...
Forgive me for the times in which I speak, when I should listen or be silent instead...
Forgive me for the times when I do not love well those whom you have called me to love...
Forgive me for the ways in which I think of myself as better, more skilled, or more holy than I ought...
Forgive me for thinking that I must always be the teacher, when often you want me to be the student...
Would you humble me, Lord?

You pray dangerous prayers, my friend.
Thank you, friend. This really ministered to me.
