Scripture Struck @ 1Kings 3:4-13
Understanding Heart
David was succeeded by his son Solomon as king. His were shoes too big to fill. The new king was young and inexperienced. With kingship comes great responsibility.
In his great need Solomon sought the Lord. He prayed to the God of his ancestors. To Him he asked for wisdom. In his humility he beg the Lord to grant him an understanding heart.
This greatly pleased God. In answer to his prayer Solomon was granted an extraordinary gift to discern right from wrong.
Today we need to be wise: to always have the sense of wonder; gain insights and new paradigm; be sensitive to the needs of people and trends in society; capacity to easily understand and grasp every situation. Lord, grant us wisdom! 😊
