Lord, give me wisdom or I shall die!

Another 20 mins today!

It is the Lord who gives wisdom, and from His mouth come knowledge and understanding. I should accept Your words, store up Your commands within me, turn my ear to wisdom and apply my heart to understanding. I should be calling out for insight and crying aloud for understanding, looking for it as for silver and searching for it as for hidden treasure. Then I will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God. (Provers 2:1-6)

For the truth is, You know, O Lord, how foolish I am, and how ignorant, and how far short I have fallen from Your glory. I am poor and wretched, blind and lost, unless You come and shine Your light into my heart, and lead me in Your way. So, here I am, crying out to You: Lord, give me wisdom lest I perish in my foolishness! Give me wisdom or I shall die!

Yesterday, Fiona B came back from Australia to stay for a while. Thank You, Lord, for giving her a blessed time there, and for leading her in a new project. And last night, Elliot and I took the train to a JPS meeting to plan for a debate in June. And D had a happy time at the last day of the Big Bad Book Sale in PJ: so we've got another pile of new books to enjoy.
