Wisdom 8/7/15
The great Debate last night.
Candidates presenting themselves to us
as candidates for the office of President of the United States in these
turbulent times.
Poised, wise, knowledgeable,
understanding affairs of the world. An awesome responsibility, is it not. My prayer
is this:
“One things needful, Lord this treasure,
Teach me highly to regard, All else, though it first
give pleasure, is a yoke that presses hard
Beneath it the heart is still fretting and striving,
No true lasting happiness ever deriving.
This one thing is needful, all others are vain,
I count all as loss that I Christ may obtain.”
LSB 536,1
Samuel choose David as Saul’s successor because “the Lord looketh after
the heart”.
Lord, help us make wise choices.
