Megan's prayer: Kutless' "Not What You See"

Humility is not one of my strong suits. I find myself putting others down, belittling others, even though they don’t deserve it. Not really an attractive quality, I realize, but I am working on it.

Today’s song helped point out the obvious: The world doesn’t revolve around me. It also showed me that, in reality, the world should only revolve around one person.

Only one deserves this exaltation
Only one deserves this elevation

How can I, as a human, really think that I am better than others? How can anyone place themselves higher than others? Weren’t we all made by God, in his own image and likeness? We, as humans, were all created equal. We, as humans, have no reason to put others below us.

And then there is Jesus. The one who deserves “exaltation” and “elevation.”

But even He, He laid it down to serve on bended knee.
