Lord, remind me
That when life’s circumstance lifts me up
This false sense of self- sufficiency
Can just as easily be lost in conceit.
Like an errant child
I blame You with my every failure
Even as I credit myself with every success.
I raise myself above all else
Posing and putting on airs
Forgetting the One God
Whose power and love
Has brought me there.
Save me from my blindness and myself.
Take this success, to be Your own.
Amen.
Bible Inspiration: Luke 14:11
For everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled and he who humbles himself shall be exalted.
