Lord, It is easy to become focused on myself—my rights, my desires, my expectations. Help me fix my eyes instead on the humility of Jesus. Let His example reshape my attitude and my actions. Remove any entitlement within me and replace it with a servant’s heart. Reveal the places where I do not reflect Your character, and change me so I can love and serve as Christ did. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
