Understanding

Dear Lord please be with us this day and please may Your Holy Spirit be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and blessings and protection that You give us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.
Dear Lord please lead us into paths of great understanding as we flounder about in Your Creation with only enough understanding to know that Your Holy Spirit has been at work in our lives and our prayers have been answered on Your terms and we are surviving among Your Children and Your Plan is working itself out according to Your timing and not ours, in Jesus Christ's name we see this, amen.

KJV*
Pr 4:7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
Pr 4:8 Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.
