Help make my thoughts holy and love pure.

Give me the gift of counsel.

How many times have you been faced with a difficult decision, a variety of choices or several different paths you could take? Did you feel overwhelmed, confused, and really wishing you had some guidance from someone or more than just one person? In times like these, we can find some assurance with counselors, a life coach, family, trusted friends, and maybe even with our pastor. The fact is that all of us are faced with decisions every day. Some of our choices are small: what to wear or eat, when to make that phone call, which program to watch on television or when to go to bed. And yet we find that big decisions will come along sometimes demanding to be resolved one way or another. Business choices, relationships that need attention, making wise choices about marriage and careers — all demand much thought and discernment. We depend on our own experience, the wisdom of others and our reasoning abilities to make those choices. It is important for us to make good decisions and we have supernatural help to guide us with the gift of counsel.
