Just like you

The Word became human and made his home among us (John 1:14; NLT).

Lord,
I’m human, just like you –
Like you, may I be kind.

Lord,
I’m tempted, just like you –
Like you, may I be pure.

Lord,
I’m fearful, just like you –
Like you, may I be brave.

Lord,
I’m humble, just like you –
Your weak, unworthy slave.

Whoever wants to be first among you must be the slave of everyone else (Mark 10:44; NLT).
