Heavenly Father, how easy it is to fall into legalism and hypocritical thinking by my short-sighted understanding of Your goodness and grace toward the human race and Your plans and purposes for the redemption of man. Keep me from this narrow-minded, self-righteous, religious thinking. May I act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with You all the days of my life, to Your praise and glory. This I ask in Jesus' name, AMEN.
