Good morning Church family
Jesus is the wisdom of God, we will learn wisdom as we follow Him and discern the will of God. This means we don’t just follow our hearts, we test what we are feeling with our minds to make sure that we are in fact following God’s will and not our own. Another step in the process is that we allow the wisdom of God to be at work within us guiding our actions. Consider today what James says in the following portion of scripture:
“Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. But if you harbour bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. Such “wisdom” does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice. But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.” James 3:13-18 NIV
