May People Not See Me

'Jesus, help me to spread Your fragrance 
wherever I am. Fill my heart with Your Spirit 
and Your life. Penetrate my being and take 
such hold of me that my life becomes a radiation 
of Your own life. Give Your light through me and remain in me in such a way that every soul I 
come in contact with can feel Your presence in me.

'May people not see me, but see You in me.'

                      John Henry Newman

    Oooooo, seeing this only now. I had to grin at Claudia's comment about printing out the words, but for me, it'll have to be one step up - I have to make a huge banner of it, and hang it right before my eyes, so I can never, ever run away from it! On a more serious note, I will re-word and try to write that prayer on my heart - May Jesus be seen; not me.
