Spirit of truth, our great counselor, keep us from hubris and the certainty that we are sufficient unto ourselves, that we would acknowledge where we do not understand and are in need of you and so be open to receiving your wisdom, through Christ our teacher, who spoke truth to the world and now intercedes for us in you before the Father’s throne in heaven. Amen.
‘Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this and said to him, “Surely we are not blind, are we?” Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would not have sin. But now that you say, ‘We see,’ your sin remains.”‘ – John 9:40-41
