Day 19 of Prayer Guide - Wisdom for Your Mind

Day Nineteen
Wisdom for Your Mind

1 Corinthians 3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight.

The advice rolls in as waves – unwavering, unrelenting. It pounds my brain with confusion and concern. So many voices call out opinions. They meet like the crash of cymbals, grinding and tearing at my confidence.

Confused one, come saturate your mind with wisdom.

Today I Pray for You:

·     To set aside lesser words so you can hear the Voice of a Whisper

·        To tune into unchanging knowledge that flows from the One Who’s always been.

Today You Pray:

God of Wisdom, I know not what to do. I strain to hear Your voice and realize it’s not what but Whom. You are wisdom. The more I know You, the closer I follow the One who directs my what.

Gently you set aside sources that tease my mind with man’s wisdom. There is a way that seems right to me but it’s not Your way. Your way is life, peace and rest.

    Shannon, thanks for your comment on my post "Smouldering Eyes and a Neck that Smells of Toothpaste." http://www.jenniferdougan.com/2011/10/smoldering-brown-eyes-and-neck-that.html I agree. I love that we can go to our heavenly Groom each day, loving him and resting in him. Thanks. Fun to "pray with" other sisters online.

    I liked your above line" Come saturate our mind with wisdom." Good stuff.

    Blessings,

    Tracy, I'm a simple girl. God can do complex things through a heart that simply loves Him.
