All is vanity...

The Lord says "Do not judge", and I try, humbly, to obey.
The Lord says "Do not condemn", and I try, humbly, to obey.
The Lord says "Love your enemy and do good to those who hurt you",
and I try, humbly, to obey.

The wisdom of men is folly and the folly of God is wise. This I hear and understand.

Things do not happen according to my will but to God's and in this I am glad.

...but I am human and not good enough to not be hurt by those who judge and condemn me.
...I am human and not good enough not to be hurt when my supposed enemy, calls me friend but continues to disregard me.

How can they continue to be mislead by the true enemy when I see you standing so clearly before them?
How can they choose to dwell in bitterness and deal in venom when so much love is trying to get free?

God grant me the strength to do your will, and if not the ability to control my emotions, then at least help me not be controlled by them.

For when my heart is set aflame with indignation it is no longer open to your spirit.
When me eyes are filled with tears, I cannot see your light.
When my ears are deafened by complaint and protest I cannot hear your word.

I am weak and foolish, so easily led astray... help me to be as strong as you require.

Renew your tired servant so that he might continue to stumble along the path you have set for him.
