Responsibility

Lord, help me to take responsibility for my own actions, even though they’re usually not my fault. (from Myers-Briggs personality types)

It’s common to overlook our own personality traits when we are confronted with possible errors that we usually see in someone else. To acknowledge our mistakes often takes a lot of grace as well as honesty. To admit that you’ve goofed, intentionally or otherwise, is to recognize your humanness and put others at ease.

We are not accountable for [God’s secrets], but we. . . are accountable forever for all that he has revealed to us, so that we may obey all the terms of [his] instructions. (Deuteronomy 29:29)
