Whenever we try to face life with nothing but the strength that is ours, show us, O God, how poor that is. Then share with us thine own.
This is another example of why our Christian faith sets us apart from the operating mindset of our world. The message heard from practically every defender of conventional wisdom is to be self-sufficient and ruggedly independent. How different is the invitation from Jesus to think of ourselves as little lambs. We do not need to have all that is necessary - our shepherd will guide us to what is needed.
