Live in Harmony

 


 

Live in harmony with each other. Don’t be too proud to enjoy the company of ordinary people. And don’t think you know it all!

 

—Romans 12:16 (NLT)

 



 

 

 

Heavenly Father,

 

Give me a humble heart and pure motives, so that I might have the privilege of joining in with You to touch the lives of others with Your love.

 

Help me to live in harmony with those around me—by celebrating the diversity of souls that You have created and making my first consideration my own shortcomings, rather than the shortcomings of others.

 

Keep me from taking a proud and haughty attitude with others, thinking I am better than them, when in truth it is only by Your mercy, grace, and strength that I can stand at all.

 

Teach me to enjoy the company of “ordinary” people—people who are just broken in different ways than I am—and help me to work willingly alongside them as you lead, understanding that You are the One who knows it all.

 

Give me a humble heart and pure motives, so that I might have the privilege of joining in with You to touch the lives of others with Your love.

 

In the name of Jesus, Amen.
