Tame Me
Oh God, tame my tongue. May I not use it to transgress those who transgress against me. May You allow my anger to subside on those who have who have taken me for granted and made me feel unworthy.
Discipline my thoughts, teach me not to judge others who have judged me. Give me a humble heart, one of humility. One that resembles Yours.
Give not the enemy any opportunity to stir conflict among us. Teach those who unintentionally allow their "comments" which destroy the dreams and passion of Your people to stop their pointless gossips. Open their self-centered eyes and let them see the fruits of their destruction. Make them stop.
Show us what it truly means to be Your followers, not the hypocrites most of us are.
All I want is to focus on You and You alone..
..not on those I have considered close to me but discovered were the main ones architecturing all the backstabs on me. For I have forgiven them time after time after time each time their mouths open against me, and I will continue to do so out of love.
Teach me to humbly note down my weaknesses and perfect myself, not according to their standards, but Yours.
Eliminate all hindrances which are delaying the achievement of Your Glory. Amen
