James 3

"13 ...Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom.
16 For where envy and self seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there.
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy."

Not only do I pray this for myself, but for everyone I know. May Christ be so vibrant in me that everything I do and say is in the meekness of wisdom.
The flip side of this is that I have to ask for forgiveness every day. Thank you, Lord, for your endless mercy toward me!

"Morning by morning new mercies I see..."
