Father, I give You my worries, not only with my words but also with my heart. Teach me to let go of what I cannot bear. Thank You for taking care of me. Amen.
„Ask for Wisdom “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God.””
God does not reproach you for needing wisdom. He invites you to ask. That is encouraging, because you don't have to pretend you see everything clearly. You may honestly say: “Lord, I do not know.” But there also lies the confrontation. Do you truly ask for wisdom, or do you primarily seek confirmation of what you have already decided? Wisdom from God is not the same as a good feeling about your own plan. Sometimes His wisdom is correction, delay, or a closed door. Whoever asks for wisdom must be willing to be led.
Proclamation
When I lack wisdom, I ask God for it. He gives generously and without reproach. I open my heart to His guidance, even when it corrects my plans.
Prayer
Lord, give me wisdom that comes from You. Protect me from self-will dressed in a spiritual guise. Teach me to listen, discern, and obey. In Jesus’ Name. Amen. Give up “Be still, and know that I am God.”
