If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. — James 1:5 KJV
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 NIV
Thought and Reflection
We often act because of our ignorance and are faced with severe penalties for what we do. God desires to give us spiritual wisdom that does not just help us make smart decisions, but also grants us the capacity to react and act with wisdom and grace.
Every day and when we encounter difficult situations, prior to making difficult decisions, let’s look for God’s direction and request the gift of wisdom.
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, I ask Your wisdom to help me to make wise choices regarding the situations and challenges I’m facing today. Pour wisdom into my heart and mind to ensure that my words, actions and decisions will not only satisfy You but as well as a blessing to the people who surround me. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
