I have had some summer reading recommended by my daughter's principal. One aspect of the book discusses the relationships that teachers develop with students and the need to show and earn respect. The same idea is applied to wisdom. If we are wise, we need to demonstrate it!
We can receive wisdom from God and from the experiences that He provides in our lives. Through the blessings and gifts from God and through the challenges that He provides as lessons and opportunities for growth, we can gain wisdom. Once we have wisdom, we need to act on or demonstrate that wisdom. However, we should be sure to do so in a way that is humble. Through our good deeds and kind actions, we can show the wisdom we have received from God and we can use our wisdom to the benefit of His Kingdom!
Gain wisdom from God and then humbly show wisdom through your words and actions!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the wisdom that You have provided to me. Help me to use this wisdom in ways that allow others to see Your glory. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
