But humility is what is demanded -- not so >much because it's commanded (thought that would be enough), but >because we've earned it. Every year brings another wave of >major failures in morality, character, and spirituality. >Rather than progressing culturally, we find ourselves slipping. > Humility is earned! So let's be humble and call upon the >Lord! > > >MY PRAYER... > Holy and Almighty God, your deeds are awesome, your >faithfulness is overwhelming, and your mercy and grace are such >a blessing. Yet I come to you knowing that you hear me, >despite the incredible distance between you and I, between your >worth and holiness and my lack. I confess that I, and my >culture and country around me have made a mess of what you so >wonderfully blessed us with. I come humbly asking that you >reassert yourself in our nation in clearly recognizable ways. >I ask this in faith through Jesus. Amen. >----------- > >Heartlight Daily devotional and prayer are written >by Phil Ware of HEARTLIGHT Magazine, on the web at: >http://link.crosswalk.com/UM/T.asp?A1.21.21604.1.1286813 >----------- >HEARTLIGHT is a non-profit organization and needs >your help!
