I came across this prayer written by Bob Hyatt. May it help us to fully see our God above.
From the desire to be esteemed,
Deliver us, Jesus.
From the desire of being loved by all…
From the desire to be honored …
From the desire to be praised …
Deliver us, Jesus.
From the desire of being preferred to others…
From the desire of being consulted …
From the desire of being approved …
Deliver us, Jesus.
From the fear of being humiliated …
From the fear of being despised…
From the fear of suffering rebukes …
Deliver us, Jesus.
From the fear of being forgotten, ridiculed and wronged…
Deliver us, Jesus.
That I out of my riches may give to others in their poverty,
Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it.
That I may know the depth of my own poverty
Jesus, grant me the grace to understand it.
That others may increase and I may decrease…
Jesus may it be.
