Prayer of Humility

Reflections In Gods Word

Prayer of Humility

Dear God, I know I often fail

Sometimes my spirit is frail

Guide me into things holy

Let my words for You be boldly

I do want to do what is right

Let me be acceptable in thy sight

I really need to be more humble

And please forgive me when I grumble

Let my faltering words and wandering thought

To thy throne be brought

Attempts without You are not bright

Let me be Acceptable in thy sight

Give me harmony of heart and lips

Before some hasty word slips

Let me meditate on Holy things

Lift my heart on angel wings

And then my devotions might

Be acceptable in thy sight

"Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart,

be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord,"

-Psalm 19:4

Words can hurt, and destroy peace and harmony in our life and with our relationship with God. When we have anger, do we find ourselves trembling or do we possess a peace that passes all understanding. Peace is the rights of God’s children. We can find joy when our hearts are fixed on him. This is one way we can please God and also make life easier for those around us.
