Wisdom
and foolishness inhabit the same space. Indiscretion can be found easily, but
wisdom must be sought after. The good news is that wisdom, like unseen but
constantly present broadcast waves, is always present for the taking. Tuning my
heart to hear opens a world of understanding, discretion and clarity; concentration
on the right things unveils previously hidden treasures. Blessed Lord, You lift
the gloom of confusion and tear away the veil of childish nonsense. Your
countenance brings endless illumination to my darkest moments and joy
unspeakable to my heart.
A serious pursuit of godliness requires an equally serious renunciation of worldliness. Too often, we measure spirituality with false scales. While being wisely selective with our public vices we are less so with our private attitudes and perspectives. In reality, it is the thoughts and intents of the heart where the greatest battles must be waged; our actions will ultimately align with the condition of our hearts. Lord God, You know me inside out, You are not fooled by human facades. Plow my heart with Your Word and Spirit and leave nothing unturned. Refresh my inward man that I may outwardly glorify You in all places at all times.
