As I spend time in God's word and allow Him to build His truths into my life, I grow in a wisdom that is functional. Wisdom is more than just knowing some sayings. Wisdom is more than just fortune-cookie fodder. Instead, wisdom produces several things in our lives. Two of these aspects are discretion and understanding, which work to alert us concerning bad decisions and the wrong kinds of relationships.
As we grow in wisdom we can trust that inner alarm that goes off in certain situations and around some people.
Spending time in God's Word makes you hunger for more...for more meat. And once you have eaten at the banquet Father God has spread out for you, nothing else will satisfy you.
ReplyDeleteGive me something to chew on and that will build me up. Finger foods only tease, frustrate and leave me with sticky fingers...spiritually and physically speaking.
