The Prayer of Agur

“Give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only by daily bread.” Proverbs 30:8.

“The Prayer of Agur” is the first book that I have by the author and will not be the last.

A little-known biblical author names Agur is the only prayer in all of Proverbs, and it offers life changing potential. I have read through the book of Proverbs and did not know who Agur was until I came across the book.

Agur was an unknown man that asked God to provide the exact amount he needed for each day. He trusted God and was rewarded for that. How many of us live with the attitude that we need to keep up with the Jones and not depend on God?

Agur prays “Lord, keep me dependent on You,” nuggets of truth that we all need to follow each day.

Open your heart to Agur’s wit and wisdom, and you can learn to:   escape imbalance.

               Overcome fear of failure and eliminate envy.

               Joyfully pursue your passions.

               Reap the eternal rewards of trusting God.

               Find your personal sweet spot.

I highly recommend the book, I was challenged and encouraged that yes “modest lives” can still have an impact. Find your sweet spot.

I received a copy of the book from the author in exchange for my opinion. All opinions are my own.
