Hey everybody and welcome back to I Just Want to talk about the Bible. If this is your first time

joining us, then welcome. I'm glad that you're here. My name is Christian Keeter and I live in the

southeast of the United States of America with my amazing, beautiful godly wife Lacey and our two

wonderful daughters, Felicity and

serenity. So today we are talking yet again about wisdom. And the angle that we're going to be

approaching it from today is something that's very near and dear to my heart and something that

the Lord, I really feel like, has been teaching me a lot recently. And this is going to be something that we've

touched on in other episodes, but we're going to look at a specific passage of scripture that will

hopefully illustrate what we're discussing today. One thing that I have been talking about a lot with

the guy who disciples me and something that I really feel like the Lord has been

teaching me through him is like I've already mentioned the importance of seeking the Lord's

perspective so yes it's very important to ask the Lord for practical wisdom should I do this or

should I do that should I make this decision or that decision? But that's only one

facet of what it means to ask Lord for wisdom. Also, encapsulated in that idea is going to be the idea

of asking him to help us to see our circumstances through his perspective or just see things

the way that he sees them. Something that, again, I want to give credit where credit is due.

And so right now I'm

drawing a lot on what I have learned through the guy who disciples me.

But what I'm learning is that this is not just a one-time prayer, even a sporadic prayer.

Lord, help me see things the way that you see them, but it's supposed to be a daily prayer.

It's supposed to be a recurring prayer that whenever we're going through

situations in life, just asking the Lord, Father, please help me to see this the way that you see it.
