Today He reminded me that I am really the worst of them all.
And therefore I am the most forgiven.
He reminded me that I have thought of myself too highly, that I forgot my servanthood.
It's all too easy to point out their weaknesses. It's all too easy to criticize their wrongdoings.
But how does that benefit my Lord? How does that please my Lord?
And who am I to reject anyone He has redeemed with His blood?
Even if someone has the right, it will not be me because I am the worst of them all.
Who am I not to forgive anyone? Who am I to stop trusting anyone?
Has He not forgiven and trusted me times and again?
If He has emptied Himself to serve, why do I still carry my pride?
My half-hearted humility, it does not please Him.
Tonight, I only ask of Him..
Not wisdom.
Not talent.
I only ask of Him to keep my two hands clean, and my one heart pure.
Two humble knees and one obedient heart.
I am truly the most forgiven among the rest.
