Wise Children

«The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; all those who practice it have a good understanding. His praise endures forever.» Psalm 111:10 (ESV)

I am sure that you want to be a wise and intelligent child! I am sure that you want to be a student who will learn what the teachers teach, who will know how to answer when people ask you difficult questions, who will know how to be a good friend that others will want to be close to.

But wisdom and intelligence are not learned just anywhere and from anyone. There is a secret! You will only be a wise and intelligent child if you are a good friend of Jesus. Do you know why? He is the greatest Source of wisdom and intelligence. He is the Creator of the universe and the One who created you. All wisdom and intelligence are in Him.

When we are His friends and obey Him, He gives us a little bit of His wisdom and intelligence!

Let’s practice!

Pray, saying: “Dear God, help me to be Your friend every day, because I want to be wise! Thank you so much. In Jesus’ name, amen!”
