I receive your words as the reality and the authority for my life. I will store up your commands and guard them with my humble and obedient life. Your Word will make me whole and holy.
I will make my ear alert and attentive to wisdom, and I will stretch out my heart to understanding. I trust that this will give me the skill to respond to any circumstances or situations that I may face.
I desire that every facet of my being focus on the knowledge of your person, your creation, and your salvation.
I look for wisdom like a prospector panning for gold, taking great care in recognizing what is truly valuable. I will enter the mystery as I abandon myself to you.
I am in awe of you; I take you seriously. I want to know you intimately.
A prayer based on Proverbs 2:1-5
