“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.”  James 1:5

Lord God, I need wisdom.  I need it desperately.  I need it deeply.  I need it to see my life as your child the way that you do.  I need wisdom to be able to know when and where and how and who to live.  I need wisdom to be able to know what way I should be loving people.  I need wisdom to see where my faith is not as active it needs to be.  I need wisdom to repent of my sin and my failures to love and to be useful.  I need wisdom to see your grace to me, to see how long and wide and deep and high is your love for me.  I need wisdom for all of this, dear Savior.  Pour out your Spirit on me and grant me wisdom for all of this and more.  You know what I need, O Savior.  Give it to me according to your gracious promise.  Amen.
