When I first came to you, dear brothers and sisters, I didn’t use lofty words and impressive wisdom to tell you God’s secret plan. For I decided that while I was with you I would forget everything except Jesus Christ, the One Who was crucified. I came to you in weakness—timid and trembling. And my message and my preaching were very plain. Rather than using clever and persuasive speeches, I relied only on the power of the Holy Spirit. I did this so you would trust not in human wisdom but in the power of God. (1 Corinthians 2:1-5)
I only want Jesus lifted up; not me.
As Your Spirit gives me words to share, may people turn to You; not me.
May anyone who hears me desire more of You; not me.
May my messages create a hunger and thirst for You; not me.
I want people to find encouragement in You; not me.
May I find my strength to minister in You; not in me.
May people only follow You; not me.
May everyone who hears me be impressed with You; not me.
It’s all about You, Jesus; not me.
