Dear God, I am beset, this morning, with thoughts of myself. Plans for advancement. Worries over financial security and social status.
Let me abandon these thoughts of self, O Lord. Let me crowd them out with attention to others’ needs and wants. Let me delight those around me, as a testament to your power.
Let me work to deserve that which you give unconditionally. Let me do your will today.
(Letter #1071)
