SELL EVERYTHING AND BUY WISDOM - 1
"When I was a boy at my father’s knee, the pride and joy of my mother, He would sit me down and drill me: “Take this to heart. Do what I tell you—live! Sell everything and buy Wisdom! Forage for Understanding! Don’t forget one word! Don’t deviate an inch! Never walk away from Wisdom—she guards your life; love her—she keeps her eye on you. Above all and before all, do this: Get Wisdom! Write this at the top of your list: Get Understanding! Throw your arms around her—believe me, you won’t regret it; never let her go—she’ll make your life glorious. She’ll garland your life with grace, she’ll festoon your days with beauty.” - Proverbs 4:3-9 (MSG)
One hot day, a thirsty crow flew all over the fields looking for water. For a long time, he could not find any. He felt very weak, almost lost all hope. Suddenly, he saw a water jug below the tree. He flew straight down to see if there was any water inside. Yes, he could see some water inside the jug!. The crow tried to push his head into the jug. Sadly, he found that the neck of the jug was too narrow. Then he tried to push the jug to tilt for the water to flow out but the jug was too heavy. The crow thought hard for a while. Then looking around it, he saw some pebbles. he suddenly had a good idea. he started picking up the pebbles one by one, dropping each into the jug. As more and more pebbles filled the jug, the water level kept rising. Soon it was high enough for the crow to drink. His plan had worked!
Beloved, there is a limit to what we can achieve with our skill, physical and mental strength. Honestly, we need divine wisdom to excel in all our undertakings in life. Despite the hash economic conditions all over the world, those people who are truly connected to the source of divine wisdom (Jesus Christ) will never be stranded in life like the crow in the above story. So, why not sell your ego, pride and buy divine wisdom today.
"But wisdom will make any job easier. It is very hard to cut with a dull knife. But if you sharpen the knife, the job is easier." - Ecclesiastes 10:10 (ERV)
“Take this to heart. Do what I tell you—live! Sell everything and buy Wisdom!..." Proverbs 4:3-9 (MSG)
Friends, I therefore urge you to please spend few minutes today to call upon the only wise God to baptise you with the spirit of wisdom so that you will be able to resolve those seemingly difficult tasks with ease today/this week. Please let Jesus Christ (the wisdom of God) sharpen your knife of destiny so that you will not labour in vain this year and beyond.
Good day and God bless you. Amen
Maranatha!
