but a man of understanding will draw it out.
What did We Learn?
- Sometimes we need to take time to draw out what is going in in someone’s heart, like Jesus did with the woman at the well.
- We need to pray that God will give us wisdom and insight into another’s heart to help them understand their own.
Let's Pray
Dear Heavenly Father,
When we know something is wrong with a friend, help us take the time to really help them talk things through and to draw out what’s really going on in their heart.
Give us the wisdom to draw out what is going in deep in their heart, even as you draw out what is going on in our heart.
In Jesus’ Name we pray.
Amen.
