Prayer of the Day

"Thou hast struck a heavy blow at my pride, at the false god of self, and I lie in pieces before Thee…

Grant me grace to bear Thy will without repining, and delight to be not only chiseled, squared, or fashioned, but separated from the old rock where I have been embedded so long, and lifted from the quarry to the upper air, where I may be built in Christ forever."
