The quest for wisdom is something that goes far beyond the accumulation of knowledge on a subject. Wisdom leads us to a deep understanding of life and divine purposes. It guides us to a full and meaningful existence.
The source of all understanding
“For the Lord gives wisdom. From his mouth come knowledge and understanding. He holds success in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless.”
Proverbs 2:6-7
When we are anchored in the wisdom from on high, that which comes from the Father, it becomes a sure lighthouse in the midst of dark moments and storms.
True wisdom is not found in human sources, it comes as the gift and gift of God. It is revealed through the scriptures and by a communion with the Holy Spirit of God. It involves understanding God’s ways, purposes, and principles. It allows us to discern between right and wrong, choose wisely, and act with integrity. Divine wisdom guides us in all areas of our lives, whether in relationships, financial and career decisions, among others. It also helps us to find balance at times when our emotions struggle to rule our lives.
God is the source of true wisdom. When we sincerely seek this knowledge, He reserves it for us and becomes a shield that guides us on the path of life and protects us at each new stage.
Led by god
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. All who follow his precepts have good understanding. To Him belongs eternal praise.”
Psalm 111:10
God’s wisdom guides our souls, keeping us steadfast in times of uncertainty, hardship, and storms. And it all starts in our fear of God.
This wisdom involves our emotional, psychological, among other aspects of our lives. When everything seems to be messy and with no way out, if we don’t seek this wisdom, we despair. But when we live with it in our heart with Him as the source, we remain calm in the midst of chaos. Wisdom is essential as a guide and aid, as it enables us to deal with challenges and adversity with insight and grace.
All these possibilities that we gain from wisdom remind us that we are not alone in our journeys and that we have a loving and wise God who wants to lead us at all times.
Gift accessible to all
“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.”
James 1:5
To each one, God gives a gift. Chances are you and your friend have gifts in a few different areas that you can teach each other and spill over to each other.
But wisdom is a gift that is available to everyone. As well as loving, serving, interceding. For it is of the character of God, born of His heart, and poured out upon us as we seek after Him.
This gift is in line with God’s will and is consistent with His teachings and values, it even helps us to be constant in our search. He considers the greater good, justice, compassion and love.
The divine wisdom we receive from God encourages us to seek Him even more, to fear Him as the source of all insight and knowledge, to trust in His perfect plan.
May we continually seek this wisdom, immerse ourselves in the Word that teaches us so much about it, cultivate a deep and intense relationship with God and allow His wisdom to guide us in every step of our lives.
