Self awareness
“No one can see his own errors; deliver me, LORD, from hidden faults! … May my words and my thoughts be acceptable to you, O LORD, my refuge and my redeemer!”
(Psalms 19.12,14 GNB)
Despite the best of intentions, I am not perfect. No one is. And it is extremely difficult for me to be objective towards my own thoughts and actions.
I need to have family and friends who are willing to honestly give objective feedback to me. And even then, I may not listen as I ought.
God also points out my errors and faults. Through the Bible and through his Spirit. I need to be sensitive to his feedbacks.
And act on them according to what will please him.
Lord,
may my words and my thoughts
Be acceptable to you
