Praying for Wisdom - James 1:5

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. (James 1:5)

Wise Father,

I have prayed often that you grant these children wisdom. But I pray for the day when they come to understand you promise to give wisdom to those who ask and that they begin to ask you for it. I pray that they face situations early in their lives in which they do not know what to do and in weakness reach out to you for guidance. When they do so, I pray that you reach down to touch them and impart your wisdom. From that I pray that they experience, as I have, the direct answer to that cry for help, that cry for guidance, that cry for wisdom and that, from that experience, they will then always turn to you as they make their choices and decisions and when they have no idea what to do next.

Amen
