Prayer

Bless the Lord, whose name is to be praised,
Our Father who art in heaven,
who has given us his laws,
to show us the error of our ways,
Blessed is his son, Christ the Messiah,
who redeemed us from having broken them.
Blessed are you, O Holy Spirit,
who assists us in sinning no more,
and sustains us in the way of the Lord,
grant us wisdom and understanding this day.
Amen.

Old Testament Reading - Attentive to wisdom

thumb

1-2Every young man who listens to me and obeys my instructions will be given wisdom and good sense. 3-5Yes, if you want better insight and discernment, and are searching for them as you would for lost money or hidden treasure, then wisdom will be given you and knowledge of God himself; you will soon learn the importance of reverence for the Lord and of trusting him.

6For the Lord grants wisdom! His every word is a treasure of knowledge and understanding. 7-8He grants good sense to the godly — his saints. He is their shield, protecting them and guarding their pathway. 9He shows how to distinguish right from wrong, how to find the right decision every time. 10For wisdom and truth will enter the very center of your being, filling your life with joy. 11-13You will be given the sense to stay away from evil men who want you to be their partners in crime — men who turn from God’s ways to walk down dark and evil paths.
