All the advice you receive has made you tired.
ROMANS 12:16 (CEB)
Don’t think that you’re so smart.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
There is no shortage of know-it-alls so don't take them or yourself too seriously.
DAILY FODDER
What makes know-it-alls so attractive? How do you keep yourself from becoming one?
PRAYER
All-knowing God, you have graciously given us access to your wisdom. However, since that day in the Garden of Eden when Adam and Eve chose to do things their own way, we've gravitated toward creating our own versions of wisdom. I'm included in this sin. It's easy to convince myself that I know what's right and what's wrong so that I don't need to consult you. Thank you for your mercy toward your know-it-all world. Give me the skills I need to tune out all the fake wisdom that is clamoring for my attention. I'm going to tune into you alone. Amen!
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you would protect us from all forms of evil. Amen!
