A Prayer for Wisdom

The days feel long, but the seasons are short. We never really know when a certain "last" will happen. In every changing season, God invites us to seek wisdom and embrace the shift. While that transition can sting, it also offers a beautiful opportunity. Instead of striving to remain the center of our children’s and grandchildren’s lives, we can intentionally point them to the One who should be.

Reference: James 3: 13-18

Prayer: Heavenly Father, help me live a life that glorifies you before my family. Trying to be their all in all not only sets me up for failure and disappointment, but far more importantly such misguided efforts keep me from pointing them to. When I forget, because I will, and I'm feeling like I'm on the outside of their lives looking in, remind me of this greater goal. I want to live demonstrating to my family that you are my joy and my heart's desire. Despite how dear my loved ones are to me, you are the well that never runs dry. In Jesus' name we pray, amen
