Humility
[Psalms 141:1-10](../../../kjv/psalms/141/1-10)
****
This is an evening psalm. Acceptable prayer is as the smoke of incense rising in the still air, [Revelation 5:8](../../../kjv/revelation/5/8) ; [Revelation 8:3-4](../../../kjv/revelation/8/3-4) . Each day we should ask to be delivered from *lip* sins, *life* sins, and *like* sins-especially the last, the dainties of appetite and desire, [Psalms 141:4](../../../kjv/psalms/141/4) .
We owe a great deal to the care of fellow-believers. It may take more love to smite than to soothe. The breaking of the box of precious ointment over our heads may cause a momentary shock; but we must not refuse it, since the contents are so salutary; and we can return their well-meant kindness by praying for the righteous when their calamities are multiplied, [Psalms 141:5](../../../kjv/psalms/141/5) . It was a rough time for David, but he kept looking up and committing his soul to God’s faithful care. Under similar circumstances Paul struck an even higher note, [Romans 8:36-37](../../../kjv/romans/8/36-37) . Go on patiently living up to your ideal. God will surely vindicate you!
