Brokenhearted, Happy, and Useful.

"And so, Father, take the swagger out of our indignation.
Take self-pity out of our hearts, and presumption from our lips.
Make us feel that mercy is our life.
Teach us deeply that freely we have received, and freely we must give.
Make us brokenhearted, happy, useful sojourners.
In Jesus' name, we pray,
Amen." -John Piper (Life As a Vapor, 168)
