A prayer to finish 20-20 with wisdom by Alicia Hedley, read by Leah Martin.

The foolish plan of God is wiser than the wisest of human plans and God's weakness is stronger than the greatest of

human strength 1st Corinthians 125

it's fair to say that most of us have questioned or at least wondered about God's

purpose and plan for this year we've had. A global pandemic that has interrupted our lives and all of our plans

for 2020 are disrupted we could never have predicted what this year would have looked like, but I wonder

if wisdom would have prepared us. Today's scripture reminds us of God's infinite wisdom and strength in times like we're

experiencing now, that his wisdom, his plans, his thoughts, his ways, his strength is far greater than ours, far greater than we can even

begin to comprehend.

2020 for most of us was a year that didn't quite make sense.

We still don't understand the purpose behind such a tumultuous year.

But friends, we can know one thing for certain.

God is ever so wise and ever so strong and he's always working.

Even if we don't see the outcome of all this,

he is at work.

Let's change our perspective and finish this year with wisdom.

We can do this by recognizing

we aren't wise at all, but it's God who is wise, that it's God who hears

us, sees us, and knows exactly what's happening.

In all his infinite wisdom, we can finish 2020 wisely

knowing that he is in total control.

Let's pray. Dear God, we thank you for being faithful, for giving us the courage to push through
