Exalted Father, who honors those who have been brought low, may we be secure in your love, that we would be willing to suffer indignities, knowing that we are held by you and that you redeem all things in the proper time, through Christ our savior, who let himself be brought low and now lives forever in glory with you and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
“But when you are invited, go and sit down at the lowest place, so that when your host comes, he may say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher’; then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.” – Luke 14:10
