Wisdom For Living.
Without a community you will struggle. This is why the Bible stresses the importance of not forsaking the gathering of God's people too. You can't do life all alone. No one can make it out here all alone.
Wisdom is not a destination but it is continuous. We all have situations in our lives where we are at a crossroad without knowing what to do or where to go. There are minor or major decisions to always make in life and you need someone by your side that can either point you in the right direction or share life's experience with you.
Do you only seek people when you will need help or when it will favour you? If that's all you seek, then it will boomerang later on. People know when they are being used and they would go to where they are celebrated rather than where they are tolerated.
How Do You Live A Life That Will Make A Difference?
Seek God:
A seeking heart can't go wrong especially if you are seeking God. Without God, you are nothing. Giving the right situation, you can do about anything and having God helps us not to throw caution to the wind. Anyone can be bad but God is the deciding factor.
We need to have a seeking heart...a heart that wants to learn...a heart that wants more wisdom and knowledge. The Bible clearly tells us to seek God when He may be found. Our ways of living should show our desire for wisdom and wisdom is seeking God. Are you truly seeking God with your heart?
Choice/Decisions:
You must be intentional in what you are doing. You always have a choice to make in this life and your choices would determine what you get out of life.
People and pain would bring about the wisdom you need in this life. People learn with pain and people learn from experiences in dealing with others. Make a choice to learn from people - by asking questions and also by observing too. There is wisdom that pain would teach you that no other person can teach you. Without pain, the learning can't be felt. If the gold won't go through the pain of process, it won't come out beautiful. Sometimes it's until you get to the rock bottom before you can muster the strength to stand. You will learn a lot through that and have better standing to teach others who haven't yet dealt with pain.
Good Conduct:
Show your works by your good conduct. Live in such a way that others can be drawn to you. Always make it a point of duty to reflect Jesus in you. How do you talk? How do you dress? What motivates you? What comes to the mind of people the moment they see you? What impression are you giving to people at first point of contact?
Gentle Spirit:
Being meek doesn't mean weakness. Meekness means a power that is under control. You are not trying to impress others or throw things in their faces. You want to see the true state of a person? Give that person power and the real person will show up. Power has a way of bringing out the realness in people. This is why meekness should be a conscious state to us so that we can handle whatever comes.
Meekness is being bold even when faces with evil. It also shows your ability even when provoked. How do you respond to situations? Boldness without brokenness is bullying. Being broken is a state of meekness.
Thank you for your time.

Every point of our life, we constantly need the wisdom to keep going in this life. There are a lot of times we need to take some certain decisions and our decisions can either make or mar us depending on how it later turns out to be. A wisdom man conquer the hurdles of life at every point of life
Money definitely plays an important role in our life but it is also a fact that money is not needed in childhood and money is needed in youth then we don't have it because our struggle fee is running and When old age comes, we lose money, but then these money do not have that value and value, so it is better that people should help each other and spend good time with each other, this is called life.
I don't understand the money part in this post but I will just say that finance is important in a family as it makes things work and communication makes it easier to manage finances between couples.
Wisdom is from above and not from abroad. You have nailed it and explained the importance of wisdom. The God factor cannot be ruled out and I love when you said wisdom is needed to keep going in life.
Thanks a lot for this.
Wisdom is far the most important thing. Wisdom is always profitable to direct no matter what it may be and how it may look like. No matter how we might look quite confusing at times, wisdom is always the best choice to be free from that bondage at times. We need to key into the wisdom of God and trust him to always help us no matter how it may look like. We need to always pray for his wisdom
We need wisdom to live and God is the source of wisdom. Wisdom is from above not from abroad. That's why Holy Spirit is there to guide us into all truth. When we find the truth is God's Word, we are wise. Thank you for another spirit filled and uplifting message. I was expecting that for tomorrow as a Sunday dose but you dropped it like it's hot on a Saturday. Thank you.
We had a friend who gave a lot of importance to money and in this way time passed and it came to a time that all our friends lost friendship with him because his behavior was also changing due to money. After a few years he came to us again and apologized for his misbehavior with all the people because of money.
Placing value on money over family is a wrong move. Money is important but family trumps everything. With family, you can navigate every situation...in surplus...in not so pleasant ones too.
God is the source of wisdom, no doubt. I am happy you enjoyed this. Yes, I dropped it earlier and decided to do another on a Sunday. Just dropping it as it comes. Thank you very much.
Absolutely, navigating life's challenges alone can be overwhelming, and that's where the power of a supportive community comes into play.
Absolutely. We cannot neglect the importance of belongingness or a community that we belong to. It's important. Thank you for this.
I feel the God factor is really important! Men will always let you down but not God. We should be pleasers of God and not men.
Also, experience is another important factor. If you analyze some of the wise men in our society today you'll found out that they are men who have experienced a lot in life.
Our experiences differ and you are right, a lot of experiences can be overwhelming which is why the God factor can never be ruled out. God above all.
Wisdom is needed to succeed in this world and I hope that almighty God blesses us with more wisdom so we can know how to navigate life
Amen. We need God's wisdom to go through life because without it, one will suffer in this life enh. Thank you very much for this.
No one can really do this life alone,I think that's why God after creating Adam,created Eve to keep him company.
''The manier the merrier'' or ''the more the merrier'' are sayings I have grown to understand.
It is important we don't do life alone.
It is more important we do it with God and good peeps.
Well done bro!
We can't do life alone. No one can go through life alone. We need one another and we need a community where we can thrive and help one another.
Experience always makes a difference, we must be filled with wisdom to be able to make the best decisions when necessary, we must always also consider the God factor at all times and the bible fills us with much knowledge for many situations, in the end God without us is still God and we without God are nothing, and we must be humble and authentic at all times and set an example around us, great write up my friend, Blessings ♥
We can do nothing without God. God will always be God, with or without us. That's why we need to put God at the foremost of everything and trust Him through it all. We need God's wisdom.
Of course we do my friend, we must always seek Him at all times and at all times to guide us and always help us to make the best decisions that will lead us to the right path at all times of our life ♥
By surrounding ourselves with good people we receive support, something we always appreciate. I never forget when people help me. I am always grateful.
It's good to be surrounded with people that helps and also never forget when people help us. You are absolutely right. Thank you for this, my friend.
No man is sufficient in himself and that is why we must continually depend on the help of God always to help us no matter how it might be. We must continually keep going and keep going in life and how we can do it is by the wisdom of God so that the wisdom of God can guide us strategically on the decisions we will be making daily in our lifes. It is really essential
Absolutely spot on and thank you very much for this. We will always need the wisdom of God because we would always make decisions as we go through life. We also need one another.
Yea we will always need the wisdom of God to always make the right decisions. In fact it will go a long way in how and the pattern our life eventually end up on. As we journey this year, we should not rush to make wrong decisions so as for us not to eventually regret it. We should stay and seek his wisdom
Truly, it's important to seek God with our heart because in so doing, he will be found. He is ever ready to come into a heart willing to accept him.
God is ever ready to a willing heart. We have to want Him, desire Him...and prioritize Him. God above all. Thanks for this.
Seek God in all your endeavors, and everything will go well. Sometimes, we think God isn’t interested in the little details or things that happen in our lives, but we're wrong. God wants to be a part of our lives, no matter how small, so we shouldn’t hesitate to call upon Him.
To make the right decisions in life, you need God; with Him, you can never go wrong. Pain can be hurtful, but it teaches people to never be weak, and we see pain as something that motivates people to do better.
God is interested in every single detail. God is more interested in the simple things as well as the major things. He is God for all situations and that's why we will always need God.
Thank you so much for this.
It is a fact that life cannot be lived alone, but here I always give the example of a person having millions of rupees, but if he does not have friends with him, then even this money will not be of any use to him. If you cannot enjoy it by spending it in a way, it is better that people who are very special and important should be given importance.
This is absolutely true and spot on. You nailed it on the head. What's money without a family to belong to...to share with. That's what gives it value. That's why we need one another and it's a known truth, we need God always.
Thank you for this.
I actually love this your quote about people being in where they are being celebrated rather than tolerated.
I have been in such situations countless time
When I was small, I used to wonder why the bible emphasized on seeking wisdom with all our strength.
But the more I grew older I understood that wisdom is found in God through the holy spirit..
This your write up is soo wonderful..😊😊
