Praying from Luke 20:46. Themes: Pride, Humility, Hypocrisy.

Dear Lord, please help us to beware of those who seek attention and praise for their own gain. May we not be swayed by their outward appearances or desire for recognition. Instead, may we focus on serving you and others with humility and love. Help us to prioritize the needs of others above our own desires for comfort and status. Amen.
