My Prayer
Heavenly Father, as we meditate on the verse ‘The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction,’ we humbly come before You seeking wisdom and understanding. Grant us the desire to learn and grow in knowledge, not only academically but also spiritually and emotionally. Help us to embrace the lessons You place before us, knowing that true wisdom comes from You. Guide us in our pursuit of knowledge, that we may use it for Your glory and the betterment of others. May we approach learning with humility and a teachable spirit, recognizing that You are the ultimate source of all wisdom.
