"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." -James 3:17 (NIV)
We can learn through reading and listening to others, but we also learn by trial and error and experience. I try to remind my students that when we learn from experience, we don't only learn when we get things "right." We also learn by reflecting on what didn't work. Many times, we can gain wisdom by weathering the storm and emerging on the other side!
We can learn by reading God's Word, listening to Him, and through the experiences in our lives. In our lives, we can embrace God's wisdom. We can know God's wisdom by its nature. Like God, His wisdom is pure. It is filled with His love. When we embrace God's wisdom, we can exude His love. In being submissive to God, we can show His mercy through our interactions with others. Through our personal experiences and relationships with God, we can grow in His wisdom, then we can share God's wisdom as we help those around us!
Get wisdom from God and then share it through your life!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for Your love and wisdom. Help me to know Your wisdom and to share it with others. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
