A Little Prayer II (14/4/11)

Two Kinds of Wisdom

 ¹³ Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. ¹⁴ But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. ¹⁵ Such “wisdom” does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. ¹⁶ For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.
 ¹⁷ 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. ¹⁸ Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness
(James 3: 13-18)

So true right? Juz when I prayed for wisdom for my afternoon appt, the message at nighte during CG talks about this: Earthly wisdom or heavenly wisdom? Which wisdom do we choose? What is doing the right things? Sound judgement? Lord I pray that I have the wisdom to choose the right way, that I will not be so caught up in the rat race but to choose U. Lord I'm thankful that I chose to pray for the right things this morning and I know that's most impt. Lord, I also pray that you continue to be with me & my family, that You guide us thru our walk & that Lord, people will know of You thru us, our ways & acts. Lord, I pray for my young believer colleagues, that a young seedling continues to grow in Yr word . Lord, I also pray that You heal her of the brokeness in her heart & let her know that the focus should be on You. Lord, I pray that you give me the wisdom to say the right things to these people so that they will get to know you.

- Amen -
