You Have Spoken Well
“Then some of the scribes answered and said, ‘Teacher, You have spoken well.’” (Luke 20:39, NKJV)
“Now if
any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, Who gives to all generously and
without criticizing, and it will be given to him.” (James 1:5, HCSB)
“For a Child will be born for us,…He will be named Wonderful Counselor…” (Isaiah 9:6,
HCSB)
Knots
and perplexities, tangles and questions
Leave
me often bewildered in tough situations.
Not
just for myself, but for ones that I love;
To
know what to say, I need help from above.
I
come to Your Word, amazed at Your wisdom -
Straight
to the heart, You spoke truth that would help them.
Always
the best words, excellent answers,
Not what they expected, but just what they
needed.
Now
again at Your feet, dear Master, I kneel,
Searching
Your face for wisdom still
To
know how to pray, and what words to say
To
help family and friends who face difficult days.
Wonderful
Counselor and Wisdom of God,
Who
can untangle knots with only a nod,
Step
into our midst and breathe peace, I pray,
In
love and obedience we’ll follow Your way.
