The Wiseman of Proverbs, likely Solomon, reminds us that wisdom comes from submitting to instruction and good advice &#8211; that requires discernment! Then, after a significant time of listening and considering, we can begin to align our hearts to the <span class=\"small-caps\">Lord<\/span>&#8216;s purposes. If you are like me, you would do much better to let your plans ripen a bit more in the light of the <span class=\"small-caps\">Lord<\/span>&#8216;s truth and wisdom from others before launching into living out those plans. I am comforted that James, the wisdom writer of the New Testament, reminded us that God will give that wisdom if we seek it and do not doubt (James 1:5-8). As we pray for wisdom, let&#8217;s also pray for patience to listen, recognize, understand, and align our hearts with the <span class=\"small-caps\">Lord<\/span>&#8216;s truth, so we can recognize godly advice and good instruction as wisdom the <span class=\"small-caps\">Lord<\/span> wants us to hear.<\/p>\n<p>Almighty God, please teach me your ways and help me discern your paths for my life. I have so many plans and schemes, but I know that if they are not from you and aligned with your will, they will not stand. Please lead me to your wisdom, and I will not only seek to know it, but also live it by the power supplied by your Holy Spirit. In Jesus&#8217; name, I pray. Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Long ago, Thomas \u00e0 Kempis declared, &#8220;Man proposes, heaven disposes.&#8221; Most of us rush to give advice and make grandiose plans.
