September · Day 264 of 365
Listen and Learn
Wisdom & Discernment
Scripture
“Strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.”
— Hebrews 5:14 (KJV)
Reflection
Wisdom is not the same as intelligence. Hebrews 5:14 reminds us, "Strong meat belongeth to them that are…" Wisdom is the right use of truth in real life. It listens before it speaks. It pauses before it reacts. It chooses long obedience over short relief. Today, ask the Lord to help you walk wisely in the very ordinary decisions of the day.
Prayer
Father, I ask for Your wisdom today. Help me to choose well, speak well, and walk humbly with You. Amen.
Thought for the Day
How can I listen better today — to God and to people?
