O Wisdom, O holy Word of God,
you govern all creation with your strong yet tender care:
Come and show your people the way to salvation.

Questions to ponder with your child...
- What's the difference between being smart and being wise? (one simple thought: A smart person knows the correct answers, a wise person looks for the best outcome)
- Go to the Old Testament and read Wisdom 7:22-8:1. Maybe you can pick out a few verses to share with your child, and talk about wisdom.
- If we were to be 'wise', what would that look like, how would we act, how would we make choices?
Using the words of today's antiphon or your own words,
pray with your child and ask God for the gift of wisdom.
(You are always welcome to post comments: yours or your child's thoughts on the topic!)
