Taking on Humility

All powerful God, today the Scripture invites me to behave like His faithful child. Oh, Lord my God, give me the grace today to love You as You love me, and as You wish me to love You. I know full well that I do not love You as I ought but desire that day will come when I shall love You as I ought to. Inflame me with Your grace to make this a real possibility. Give me the humility necessary to love You and others as You love them despite situations and circumstances that are difficult to endure in my relationships that grate against the grain. Let Jesus' all-encompassing and unconditional love overcome my selfishness that I can show the same to the people around me.

Amen.
