Most Gracious Lord, Your wisdom begins where mine ends. The sooner I learn that what You have to teach is much better for me than what is to be learned from the world. I have had to learn some hard lessons from the School of Hard Knocks. However, when I open my heart and mind to You and hear what You have to say … and, then go about doing it … I find myself happier and more fulfilled. In Your wisdom, I know that peace, hope and joy are blessings that I can enjoy. And it’s in Jesus’ name I pray. AMEN!!
