Prayer based on John 3:30. Themes: Humility, Servanthood, Surrender

Dear Lord, I pray that you increase in my life and that I decrease. Help me to humble myself before you and to surrender my will to yours. May your presence and your love be magnified in my life, and may I become less so that you can become more. Thank you for your grace and your mercy, and for the privilege of serving you. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
