Oh To Be Wise Meditations

I am trying to fix things in my life that only God can fix. I reach for my hammer to nail down truth in a certain area in my life. In the process I hit finger, and now I'm in pain from foolish sin. I grabbed my screwdriver to tighten things in my life. but the screws are loose from striving so hard to be perfect. I then took the tape measure to count the cost and I came up short to God's expectations. Oh Lord let me be wise in this: Every time I want to do the right thing there is temptation that wants to drag me away. My own evil desire entices me and the righteous thing I want to do goes by the wayside. Lord, you say if anyone lacks wisdom we should ask you. You give generously to all without finding fault, so I pray you would repair all the things I have broken in my life. I am done trying to fix old wineskins, give me a new heart so I can do your will. I believe and do not doubt you can do all things. Every good and perfect gift is from above and I know you will fill me with everything I need for life and godliness. Jesus, you are fixing things even as I sleep or am busy in daily life. I do not worry about the repairs needed, your Holy Spirit is constantly working in me. Restoring what has been dead in my heart for years. When My eyes are fixed upon you Lord I feel so repaired.
