🙏 A Prayer for Discernment and Wisdom O Heavenly Father, we lift up your servant, Manuel Rodriguez, to you, as he seeks the precious gifts of discernment and wisdom. We recognize the truth in his heart: that the complexities of this life make it hard to distinguish clearly between right and wrong, between what should be spoken and what should be kept in silence. Grant him, Lord, the spiritual sight to perceive the truth hidden beneath the surface of everyday life. He is not confused, but thirsty for knowledge and understanding through Your Holy Word. We pray that You would open his heart and mind to the eternal truths found in scripture, that they would be a lamp unto his feet and a light unto his path. We join Manuel in his heartfelt plea for the guidance of the Holy Spirit. May Your Spirit not just visit him for a moment, but dwell in him constantly, throughout his day, guiding every decision, every word, and every action. Let the Holy Spirit be his constant Teacher, enabling him to learn more and more of Your will. Finally, Lord, give him the strength to carry his Cross with faithfulness and courage. Uphold him with the fellowship of his Brothers and Sisters in Christ. We ask all this in Your Holy Name. Amen.
