Father, I pray that You might give me a heart of wisdom. I pray that I will always make wise choices; and when two paths seem to be equal, I pray You will help me to trust You even as I make my decision.
Keep me from ungodly counsel that seems good, but will, in the end, be destructive. Keep me from following the path of least resistance, and from friends who would lead me astray. Teach me, that the wise path is often the most difficult path, but in the end, it’s the most rewarding.
Direct my path, O Lord, make me a lover of wisdom. Give me a heart that is willing to obey You, to respond in faith to the wisdom You give me.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
