Chris' prayer: Falling Up's "Places"

Over the last couple of years, one of the main things I have been learning how to do is to accept things graciously. I've been learning to accept the compliments that others give me whilst still being humble. I've been learning to accept gifts graciously, and allow others to share their love for me. And I've been learning to accept help more graciously.

That one has been the hardest for me. I am such a control freak, and even worse, a very prideful person. Whatever needs to be done, I can do it on my own. Whether it be a group project in college, where I always took on the biggest role to assure the project got done "right;" planning a Life Night to assure it was done "my way;" or asserting that I can make it through a major knee operation without any assistance whatsoever. My pride tells me that I can do it on my own. But I'm working on it. I'm working on asking God,

Can you take everything that I hold?
