I need this

I need this

I need this verse

Like an earring of gold and an ornament of fine gold is a wise rebuker to a listening ear.

Proverbs 25:12

Lord, show me my need for rebuke.

Please give me listening ears!

Lord, I am prone to forget that my worst problems are inside of me.

Remind me.

Correct me.

Rebuke me.

Restore me.

I get so confused by my own pride that I call ornaments of gold garbage.

I get so turned around by my own self-protection that I call garbage gold.

I afflict myself with deafness and turn away from all the golden riches of wisdom.

Open my ears.

Humble me.
