Nebuchadnezzar paid dearly for his vain and foolish vaunting, and-that proud and boasting Pharisee went home condemned for his sin.-Oh Lord, then give me power and strength against this wicked lust,-this base and senseless sin. Let not -oh God of all goodness- this evil-appear in me, by my apparel, speech, look, gate, or any other-unseemly behavior- for You -oh God- resist the proud, and give Your-grace only to the humble. Humble me then -I pray to You- that I may-in due time be everlastingly exalted of You in the Lord Jesus.-Amen
