...than others.
I have read quite a bit posted in blogs the past day and I want to say I need prayer.
It is so easy to assume your position is correct, that you are tolerant as others are not, that you have wisdom others should want.
All I have that others should want was given to me by another as a gift. I am no better than those who do not have it, nor better than others that have the same gift.
But I have what all should want and all can get. And it is available for the asking.

- That I think myself better than others because I am a sinner as all are who needs Jesus to redeem me from my sin
- That I remain in prayer for those who do not hold my views that one day they may see the Lord as I do
- That I love not less but more to match the turning of others away from Him
- That I steep and soak in His word, not only for my own edification but to be used for His glory
- That I am sold our for Jesus, my life to be used as he will

Andy,
You and I are in the same ship, once again.
I hear your heart, and relate to your prayer.
God has been whacking the pride out of me quite a bit these days.
"I worry about pride and arrogance, I yearn for faith and obedience."
Same here, word for word.
