Wisdom







We can get into situations that require God’s help to get out of it.  Wisdom above is needed to get out of the trouble that evil thinking led us into.  And instead of asking what God said to handle the situation you ask everyone around you. You will get 30 different opinions from 20 different people.  You need someone who will give you what God says on the matter. Have you asked the One who truly has the answer you seek? Don't be like my son who rather takes action instead of asking for permission. God wants us to gain knowledge from his word and find out what he says about how to handle our troubles.  Then in prayer, call on the Holy Spirit to guide you.  God will give you stuff you never would have come up with on your own. Ask Gideon in the Bible.  He thought he had the answer to his war problem.   Gideon wanted to take an Army to defeat his enemy. God's wisdom said to take 300.  Joshua led God's people around a city wall for seven days screaming. It seemed foolish to his enemies but God's wisdom laid down a city wall.  The screams solved Joshua's Jericho problem. Who would have thought that? When God shares his thoughts the scenery is a phenomenal site to see. Wisdom takes you to a higher level and to the big picture. So, next time you hit your troubled wall, Seek God's wisdom! I'm sure you will be amazed at the outcome.

Understanding It Better By and By

    Funny how life has a way of showing you what you’re made of.  When adversity hits, what you say you wouldn't do becomes easier to do.  When the rubber meets the road, yes! you do the unthinkable.  Let's say you have a house fire and on the second floor is your baby and mom. You can only save one, which would it be? I've heard many say they would grab the baby since mom has been around a long time. I couldn't say.  I'm not in that situation right now.  There's no way to know what to do until tragedy hits.  Some can handle atrocities, whereas; other have no clue how to maneuver suffering nor know why hardship occurs.  Stop trying to figure out why hardships happens--only the Father knows.  He won't  have you guessing long.      The underlining reason at the end of your trials gives away the mystery. Experiencing hardship isn't fun but you will come out with more insight than ever before.  Instead of getting angry with God regarding your circumst

I Got You!

Do you remember going to the arcades? You and your friends’ old rendezvous spot, battling for the top spot in one of the popular games. While you guys horsed around, a group of troublemakers bullied their way onto the machines? Your posy band together vowing to have each other’s back.  Now days, every man for himself. Someone will call 911 for you, any more than that would be heroic (Romans 5:7).  No one takes on any man’s cause anymore. The back-in-the-day phrase was "I got your back." 

God Is Good!

Have you notice that when something good happens in your life, such as a promotion or your favorite team win their game or you bowl a strike in bowling or you win a debate over an issue that's dear to your heart, you jump up in enthusiasm with fist balled up and make a upward motion with your hand yelling "Yes! God is good." I hear that statement often and only when something great goes on in your life. Wasn't God good before that incident?  Wasn't He good when you were laid off from your job? You end up getting a better job and making more money. Wasn't He good when your house caught on fire? Your insurance claim paid out more than you could imagine and got your house fixed or better, received enough money to get another house?   Wasn't He good when you were robbed? He replaced what was taken and gave you more than you previously had? Wasn’t He good when you had no idea how to pay a bill that popped up on the radar and someone came along and jus
