Lord, save me
God, I enjoy learning so much.
But Lord, save me from deceit while accumulating knowledge. Save me from desire for worldly recognition. Save me from insecurity which breeds competitiveness. Save me from deviated devotion, loving studying about You but not loving You. Save me from self-importance when my service is requested. Save me from a hardened heart, turning living flesh into theological stones. Save me from my schedule, that I might remember my neighbour's needs. Save me from deafness, that I might continue hearing Your whisper.
Forgive me for all the above. Forgive me my sins, my deceived thinking, my thirst for power, intelligence, recognition for my own sake and for my own glory.
Save me from myself, O Lord, and by Your Grace, please let me be found in You.

我歡喜妳因為妳有一顆關懷他人的心靈，這是上帝給妳獨特生命的元素，散播愛的種籽，但不要給自己壓力，真誠回應內心呼聲就是，這是最真實，最能感動人的！

這樣的中文該不會難倒妳 ^^
