Blessed Jesus,

You have overcome the world. You have risen above the Earthly tendencies that You came to Earth to show us how. You taught us how to overcome the shadows of anger and blame and taught us how to embrace a different perspective of looking at ourselves first, before judging others or situations. You taught us how to stop the cycle of projecting the things with which we are uncomfortable about ourselves, onto others. To take the plank our of our own eye first. You taught us how to truly take responsibility for our own expression in this life and for our own happiness. Through Your teachings, Blessed Jesus, You taught us to be accountable for our own actions, choices and the stewardship of our life. You taught us the importance of self-forgiveness being just as important as forgiveness of others.

We ask this day, Beautiful Savior, for Your Blessings on Humanity, Your Grace and Mercy. We Thank You for releasing us from the endless cycles of blame and avoidance of self-examination, by waking us up and lifting us up. We humbly come before You and open up our books completely in honesty and respect. It is a true honor to stand before You, Merciful King, in complete openness. “Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there.” (Galatians 5:24)

Thank You for this honor of stewardship in serving You, Our One True King, Amen.
