Keep me from getting too talkative and thinking I must say something on every subject and on every occasion.
Release me from craving to straighten out everybody's affairs.
Teach me the glorious lesson that occasionally it is possible that I may be mistaken.
Make me thoughtful, but not moody; helpful, but not bossy;
Thou knowest, Lord, that what I want is a few friends at the end.
(unattributed quote from Chapter-By-Chapter Bible Commentary by Warren W. Wiersbe, p. 759) 29 November 2011
