Lord,
Help me avoid pride when I succeed and despair when I fail.
Teach me to be humble and grateful.
Amen
"As they were talking and thinking about what had happened, Jesus came near and started walking along beside them." (Luke 24:14,15) “The cross, though it has at its heart a collision and a contradiction, can extend its four arms for ever without altering its shape. Because it has a paradox in its centre it can grow without changing. The cross opens its arms to the four winds; it is a signpost for free travelers.” - G.K. Chesterton, "Orthodoxy"
