Help me to grow spiritually.

Lord, may Your spirit within me put my prayer into words.

Lord give me grace to live peacefully with other people without judging them.

Lord, I was wrong.  Help me to make the necessary amends.  Christopher de Vinck, Daily Guideposts, 7 Aug 1994

Lord, when I'm upset, help me to keep my words brief - save my wordiness for praising.  Patricia Lorenz, Daily Guideposts, 28 Sep 1995

Shut my lips from making hasty replies, O Lord.  Grant me the wisdom to hear what people are saying, taking time to let the words sink in.  Keep me from being a know-it-all, always reminding me that I have a lot to learn.  Amen.  Wisdom from the Bible, 23 August.
