Help us to endure hardship as discipline, knowing that You are disciplining us as sons. Help us to strengthen our feeble arms and weak knees and to make level paths for our feet.

“For the Lord gives wisdom and from His mouth comes knowledge and understanding.” -Proverbs 2:6

“Take your eyes off yourself and reset your focus. Take your eyes off your mountain and turn them to your mountain-maker. Take your eyes off your hardship and refocus, past the chaos, beyond the veil, where My sovereignty reigns over all. In the press, in the whirlwind, in the shifting sand, I have things to tell you that will usurp the ‘usurping one’, that will calm the storm, and will place the mountain into a swallowing sea. Turn to Me. Step back, step away, and turn to Me!”

“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” -James 1:5

“By wisdom a house is built and through understanding it is established.” -Proverbs 24:3
