Episode 250: Proverbs 1

Today's prayer meditation is on Proverbs 1

Father, Your Word is my manual for living. It lets me know how to live right and well, and to understand what life means and where it's going. It teaches me what's right and just and fair. It gives me fresh wisdom to probe and penetrate. 

It all starts with you, Father. So I bow down before you. Help me to discern the wisdom from the false beliefs I was taught as a child. Help me to weed out anything that wasn't true, but to wear wise counsel like flowers in my hair and rings on my fingers. 

Keep me from greed and envy. The more earthly good I strive for and collect, the less I am. They don't add to my value, but only decrease it. These things are all temporary and don't need to be my focus. These are the lesser things that will be added by you. 

Wisdom is calling out to me. Let me hear her voice. Wisdom will change my life. She is ready to pour out her spirit on me, and I am ready to learn everything she knows.

I will love wisdom and knowledge and I will fear you, Father. I will take wisdom's advice and allow her to train me. I will not be careless or complacent. I will pay attention to wisdom and relax in the knowledge that you will always take care of me.

So be it.

Until next time time, be blessed and be a blessing.
