A Prayer to Keep our Strength Under Control by Christie Thomas

In today's episode by Christie Thomas, we talk about how Jesus could have entered Jerusalem with a golden horse, an angel army, and a royal parade. Instead, He rode in on a borrowed donkey, surrounded by friends. No fanfare. No flexing. Just quiet, humble strength. That's what true gentleness looks like — not having nothing to prove, but choosing to prove nothing.

Reference: Matthew 21:5

Prayer: Father, I know you are powerful, Jesus. Thank you for keeping your power under control and being gentle with us. Help us to learn to keep our strength under control too. In Jesus' name, amen. Thanks for joining me today.
