Praying for Wisdom
(based on Job 38)
Lord, you laid the earth's
foundations;
you placed its cornerstone;
while the morning stars
sang together
and all the angels shouted
for joy
you set limits for the sea
and said,
“This far and no further!'
You gave orders to the
morning and showed the dawn its place;
you moulded the earth until
it took shape.
You alone know the springs
of the sea;
you alone comprehend the
vastness of the universe;
you alone know the laws of
heaven:
Lord, give wisdom to our hearts
and understanding to our minds.
Amen.
