To Keep on Learning

God of all Wisdom,
Give me the humility to keep on learning. When I feel overconfident in my own knowledge and am arrogant regarding my intellect, humble me. Show me how little I truly know and how much I have to learn. 

In our world today, we are surrounded by unlimited information, virtually all of which is accessible in one way or another via the technology we carry around in our pockets. Give me discernment about what to learn, for there is no shortage of useless information, and not all learning edifies and builds up. 

Fill me with childlike wonder over the pursuit of knowledge. And, as I learn, let there be for me no greater joy in the pursuit of knowledge than that which is truly the beginning of wisdom: the fear of the Lord. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

To Love Learning

Omniscient God,
You know all things and are filled with knowledge that far surpasses even the brightest and most brilliant minds of human beings. But even though we will never attain your level of knowledge, you have created us with minds that are able to learn and discover so much. Work in us the desire to be life-long learners. You have provided us with more ways than ever to pursue greater knowledge and understanding. May we take advantage of books, documentaries, websites, podcasts, and so many other sources of knowledge available to us. Increase our knowledge through these resources. Lead us to a greater love of learning, so that our knowledge might serve others, while also honoring you.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
