The prayer of St Francis of Assisi... I used to sing an
arrangement of this prayer in choir when I was in college.
This is about asking God to make us more loving, less
self-centered, and more Christ-like. Simple. Can’t say too
much about it, as it nicely encapsulates the core of what it
means to become sanctified or to grow closer to theosis.
We are called to be smaller, and to exalt others over
ourselves, not be the center of our own universes.
That does not mean that we are nothing, that we
do not matter and should be trampled upon.
However, it does mean that we think of others
more often than we do ourselves.
