A Point of View
An English professor wrote the words, "A woman without her man is nothing" on the blackboard and directed the students to punctuate it correctly.
The men wrote: "A woman, without her man, is nothing."
The women wrote: "A woman: without her, man is nothing."
A Word for Today
"The Wisdom Search"
"But where shall Wisdom be found? And where is the place of understanding?"
-Job 28:12 (AMP)
Job found himself asking deep questions about himself, about God, and about life itself as a result of the issues he was facing. He urgently needed to gain perspective on his life and know what to do. The friends who gathered around him seemed to have all the answers. Nonetheless, Job sensed that they had knowledge and information, but not real wisdom or understanding. James 3:13-17 says, 'If you are wise and understand God's ways, prove it by living an honorable life, doing good works with the humility that comes from wisdom. But if you are bitterly jealous and there is selfish ambition in your heart, don't cover up the truth with boasting and lying. For jealousy and selfishness are not God's kind of wisdom. Such things are earthly, unspiritual, and demonic. For wherever there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there you will find disorder and evil of every kind. But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy and good deeds. It shows no favoritism and is always sincere'.
Today, the world is filled with all kinds of experts-scholars, scientists, advisors, and even friends and relatives. These people might be intelligent and possess vast quantities of information, but this isn't the same as real wisdom and understanding. James 1:5.
The search for Wisdom is still on going, but know that the search ends when you look to God, Jesus Christ actually give us a very good tip in Matt 7:24…."Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock ", so in essence, wisdom lies in obeying God's word.
Do you have questions about your life? Do you need wisdom and understanding? Make sure to look to God! Only He can give you the wisdom you need. Humble yourself before Him, seek Him, fill your life with His Word and Pray. Don't be deceived or distracted, but go right to the Source-God!
