The prayer
Written prayerLord, help me comprehend the kind of love that is willing to lay its life down for another. I know your death on the cross paid the price for my sins, but the reality of that sacrifices unimaginable.
I feel like a selfish child when I get upset. Things don't work out the way I want them to. I'm concerned more about being the center of attention than honoring and making others a success in your kingdom. Jealousy rises in my heart when others are exalted and I see how limited my love is. Show me how to lay down my life for others.
Help me recognize your kingdom. Rewards humility and loving kindness. Amen.
