Forgive me Father, for I have selfishly demanded recognition for the good deeds that I have done. I wish that I can selfishly do things that benefit others because it truly makes me feel better, not because I will get acclaim from others. Holy Lord, forgive me for these transgressions and help me to learn from these mistakes in the future. I ask that you aid me in my progress, along with the path to righteousness. Amen.
