Love Our Kids: Seeking Good Judgment and Knowledge

Psalm 119:66    I believe in Your commands; now teach me good judgment and knowledge.

What a prayer! I’ve been a believer for over 40 years and yet the good judgment and knowledge is very hard sometimes. My own nature is speak first and think later, which still gets me into trouble after years of being aware of the problem and working to get better.

As one who works with kids each day, it must be humbling to realize that these kids are looking to YOU to teach them good judgment and knowledge. I’m sure there are times when it seems like they want to learn anything else. And yet most of them crave what is right.

I pray that you will be faithful to seek and model good judgment and knowledge before your students, your co-workers and your family. Clearly, this is a biblical request, so as you pray for it, you can guarantee it will be answered.
