"We do not have the wisdom necessary to be the pastor, mother, father, wife, husband, teacher, or leader this generation so urgently needs. We don't have what it takes to connect all the dots that would enable us to apprehend all the promises God has given to us, potent promises that we can walk into and see fulfilled in our lives. We may have dreams and visions, but we don't have the wisdom necessary to navigate the highs and lows we will most certainly encounter.We might have been offered the privilege of a ministry position, but we don't have the wisdom necessary to become all that role will require of us.
In His grace, God gives you and me a measure of faith to get us going- but it's not all we'll need to finish the race, not even close. That we must gather and collect along the way. He designed life like this to keep our hearts teachable and compliant with His heart.
Our shortage of wisdom keeps us seeking Him and prevents us from becoming hardhearted. It keeps us humble, malleable, correctable, changeable, and transformable, so that with each new day we might increasingly reflect His image."

Dear Lord, help me to learn from You and speak with words that are from You. Help me not to do things my way but Your way. Keep me humble, malleable, correctable, changeable and transformable, so that with each new day, I may increasingly reflect Your image. Amen!
