Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you. Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding. Proverbs 4:6-7 If you want wisdom, you must decide to go after it. It takes resolve - a determination not to abandon the search once you begin, no matter how difficult the road may become. This is not a once-in-a-lifetime step, but a daily process of choosing between two paths - the wicked and the righteous. Nothing else is more important or more valuable. King David taught his son Solomon as a young boy that seeking God's wisdom was the most important choice he could make. Solomon learned that lesson well. When God appeared to the new king to fulfill any request, Solomon chose wisdom above all else. We should also make God's wisdom our first choice. And thanks to Jesus' work on the cross, we don't have to wait for God to appear to us. We can boldly ask him for wisdom today, through prayer. James 1:5 and assures us that God will grant our request. God Bless you, J.H.
James 1:5 (New International Version)
ReplyDelete5If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.
