Where, O Lord, do we find insight when all around us, the competing narratives muddle the path toward discernment? Voices cry out for understanding, searching as if for hidden treasure and longing to find the wisdom needed to meet today's challenges.
You alone, O God, give wisdom; from Your mouth only come knowledge and understanding.
Teach us to listen for the Word You speak, that we will learn what is right, just, and fair.
Open our eyes to perceive the path of blamelessness. Remind us that You set before us guardrails to keep us safe if we are honest and to protect us when we are faithful.
Incline our hearts toward discretion. Lead us on straight paths, and guard us against our own willfulness.
In You alone may we seek wisdom. In You only will we find insight.
In Your sovereign name, we pray. Amen.
—Dallas Willard
