For the Willingness to Be Flexible
Selfless Savior,
When situations call for it, grant me a willing and gentle spirit to be appropriately flexible. By nature, I can be set in my ways, making it easy to dig my heels in when I am required to step out of my comfort zone. I would prefer that others see the wisdom of doing things my way and just let me call the shots. When I feel that my way is the best way, give me the humble curiosity to consider alternative views and to welcome suggestions or counsel from others. Give me a willingness to defer to others and to sacrifice my own personal preferences for their sake. Let my flexibility serve as an example to inspire others to be more malleable and adaptable in their interactions, too, as the gospel frees us to be.
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
