My Journey to God

Keep Me Humble, God

Dear God,
I’ve been on this journey a number of years now.
I’ve been high on the mount and low in the valley.
I keep looking upward and thanking you each night for all the blessings you have given me.
Sometimes the road is narrow and winding, sometimes broad and smooth.
Every now and then, I complain that I have no butter until I meet someone who has no bread.
Keep me humble, God.
Make me realize the journey through life has many pitfalls.
Make me strong so I can help those who are weaker than me.
May the path I leave for others to follow be made of strong spiritual values so they won’t stumble and fall.
I consider this the most important task on my journey through life.
