Seeking Wisdom Like Silver - 21 January 2024

  All-knowing God, whose Son Jesus Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God; you have taught us in Proverbs that if we seek wisdom like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, then we will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God. For you give wisdom; from your mouth come knowledge and understanding; you store up sound wisdom for the upright; you are a shield to those who walk in integrity, guarding the paths of justice and watching over the way of your saints. (Proverbs 2:4-8). In this regard we pray for, and with, these who are seeking wisdom: For those making career decisions, we pray that you would guide them to places and circumstances that will be truly good for them, personally, professionally, parentally and with regard to piety. For those who are retired and moving deeper into their senior years, we pray that you would show them how their experiences and abilities may be well used to make disciples, build-up families, and aid your world r
