Forgive me Jesus for being so like Simon Peter, so irrepressible on many occasions, saying things without much thinking and reflection like in today's gospel when he bragged to You, "We have given up everything and followed you" (Mark 10:28); let me be aware always that all that I have, whatever good I can do are all because of You, Jesus; like Simon Peter, let me grow and mature in my faith in You when he wrote us today "be holy yourselves in every aspect of your conduct, for it is written, Be holy because I am holy" (1 Peter 1:15-16).
Make me holy, Lord, fill me with Your Spirit by first emptying me of myself, of my pride, of my insecurities, of my sins in order to be filled with Your Spirit so I may truly conform to You and be Your presence in the world today; I know I have not given that much yet to You through others for I still think of myself always; take away whatever I still keep and hide to myself that I am not aware of, remind me to abandon and offer everything to You. Amen.
