God, You are the king of eternity, and I have submitted my life to You. Though the sin of pride continually rises in my soul like the spread of an infection, please cure this spiritual disease and remove all traces of pride from me, along with its symptoms arrogance, vanity, conceit, self-absorption, envy, rivalry, competition, and selfish ambition. May I be conformed to God's image rather than the world's image, and may I be transformed by the renewing of my mind.
May I perceive myself and my place in life with an accurate perspective. Give me commands, God, and I will follow without hesitation. Instead of longing for fame and status, may I be content with obscurity, working quietly in the shadows until You decide to reveal my work in the light. May I simply be who I am instead of trying to be someone I am not. By the grace of God I am who I am.
