Father, this is all about You. You must increase and I must decrease. You are not my opium. You are not my servant to do my bidding – to meet my needs and wants. Sometimes I cling to You more out of my fear of failure than my love for You. I am more egocentric than Christocentric. It is only by Your Spirit that I can see this. Don’t let me stay here peering into but never entering the land. Holy Spirit, enable me to lose myself in Jesus. Give me the motivation and the ability in the intensity of the specific moment to be the Light of my world – to be Jesus with those I’m interacting with. May I not live like it’s all about me.
