Psalm 83:9-12;

Isaiah 29; Ephesians 4:29-5:7

You turn things upside down! Shall the potter be regarded as the clay? Shall the thing made say of its maker, "He did not make me"; or the thing formed say of the one who formed it, "He has no understanding"? Isaiah 29:16

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you. James 4:10

In humility we come before you, dear Lord Jesus, asking you to help us to love mercy, to do justice, and to walk humbly with you, our Lord who exemplifies humility. Amen.
