Dear God, please grant me the wisdom and courage to rebuke those who scoff and mock, so that the simple may learn prudence. Help me also to humbly accept rebuke and correction from those who have understanding, so that I may gain knowledge and grow in wisdom. May my words and actions always reflect your truth and love. Amen.
