When people hurt me,

Teach me not to take it as a personal offense

Help me to see that they’re showing me a deep wound of theirs

One that breaks Your heart

One that You can and will heal

And give me Your compassion for that person.

Even when people are being:

Stupid

Foolish

Mean

Irresponsible

Selfish

Greedy

Frustrating

Unresponsive

Evil

Unbearable

Angry

Scared

Unwilling

Hesitant

You are still working all things for Your glory and my good.

But I want to hear your harmonies
