Throughout my years of ministry I have faced a number of situations that were beyond my expertise. Like Solomon of old I prayed, “‘Give me wisdom…that I may lead this people…’” (2 Chronicles 1:10). Most often God’s answer came when I least expected it. Sometimes it came as my first thought upon awaking in the morning, full blown and complete. At others times it came while I was daydreaming or thinking about something else. I can only conclude that my mind needs to be at rest before God can impart His wisdom to me.
“Teach me your ways, O LORD,
— Psalm 86:11 (NLT)
that I may live according to your truth!”
Lord Jesus help us not to obsess about things that are beyond our control. Instead help us to trust Your wisdom. In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
