Practical Wisdom

 


    It takes wisdom to make a marriage work.  Men need to provide for the family, but a woman needs to work.  Her work brings her praise.  It makes her family look good.  It should be a reminder of who God is and how He provides.
    Wisdom works with righteous.  Righteousness needs to be pursued.  How can you pursue righteousness?  Righteousness comes with salvation and submitting to God's authority.  The contrast is foolishness.  You either pursue a relationship with God or you do not.  
    By nature people are adulterous to God.  People struggle with lust, are seduced, charmed by smooth talk, and can be easily led astray.  It takes work, time, and the Holy Spirit to change human nature into righteousness.  If we never give up our human nature, then it will lead us to an unnatural death.
    Pursue wisdom that comes from God through salvation.  It will give you a good reputation.  It honors God as you become more like Jesus.  Wisdom begins with fearing God and grows in Jesus providing fulfillment in life.  
    Everyone needs God's wisdom.  God's way is truth.  You can trust where He leads you.  You can trust everything about God.  His work is what makes life good.  If you find yourself stumbling or getting off track, then turn back to Jesus.  Jesus has always been selfless.  He will get you back where you need to be.
