The purity of silver and gold is tested
by putting them in the fire;
The purity of human hearts is tested
by giving them a little fame.--Proverbs 27:21 (MSG)
Heavenly
Father,
Help me to be so sure of my convictions, that no amount of fame could sway me from them.
I want to
have a pure and upright heart.
Help me to
be deaf to the praises of man and only open to hear what You would say to me,
so I might pass the test that any fame might bring to my integrity.
And when I am
following Your leading and hear no praise for my actions, help me to stay true
to that leading and prove my resolve to be solely motivated to do what is
pleasing to You.
I want to
have a pure and upright heart.
Help me to be so sure of my convictions, that no amount of praise or fame could sway me from them.
In the name
of Jesus, Amen.
