I am weak in the knees from this prayer. What beautiful words.
All of them.
"May she be dead to all ladders and never go higher, only lower, to the lonely, the least and the longing." This thought is so breathtaking in a world that tells us to push our girls to the front of the line, the top of the roster...to always have the spotlight on them. Yes, they must work to their potential and use the gifts God has given them; but teaching them to LOWER themselves -to become LOWLY...I love it.
