No Longer Blind

Lord, help me see my blind spots
Lest pride be hiding there.
Should I not see clearly,
Please make me more aware.

If I move forth blindly
I might trample on another
By lack of sensitivity to
Neighbor, friend or brother.

Pride will often cut a swath
Where it should not have entered,
Walking on the will of God
Because it was not "centered".

Let my blind spots all be found
And tempered by humility.
Wash away my blindnesses
So I more clearly see.

"God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble."
James 4:6 KJV
