This morning we began the annual leaders meeting. There were several aspects going through my heart and mind and I was aware that I was disturbed. There were a couple of presentations, that I was mostly coordinating, and was anxious not knowing what actually the presenters will finally come up with or how they would put across the core ideas. Besides, I myself was handling a delicate topic and was anticipating trouble from some lousy participants ... and was itching to wring someone's neck! But sense prevailed... or let me be honest in acknowledging God's help in understanding my own situation. So I said this silent prayer and even wrote it down, right in the hall, in the midst of the preliminaries:
Lord, let me say and do what builds and paves for growth or transformation, rather than assuage my hurt feelings or boost my own ego!
At the end of the day, as I re-read the same prayer from my scribble pad, I sincerely THANK GOD for hearing my prayer!
