A Prayer for Monday, February 6, 2012

Arrogance/Humility

We will live today, O God, in that place where our arrogance meets our humility; we will live simultaneously with the sense that it is all about us and with the conviction that it is all about them.

Help us to live creatively in that tension; help us to grow toward a healthy balance between self-interest and other-interest.

Help us to find and to know you in that real place where we live our real lives rather than to give in to a seeming inevitability or to an unattainable ideal.

Amen.
