Wisdom From Above

Wisdom is shown to be right by its results...Author – Jesus

Wisdom – comprehensive insight, principles of right living made action, right application of truth learned. 

Wisdom will produce fruit in our lives, what fruit we produce is directly related to the wisdom we choose to live by.

Wisdom of our own making is often selfish in nature and pursues its own way and the results will show themselves in a life without much real peace – a life of contention, disorder, confusion, unrest and disharmony. These will show themselves in our own internal life and then show up in the way life happens with those closest to you. Relationships with those we love such as a spouse or kids or our work life, will show what kind of wisdom we are choosing to live by. 

But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others (hard one for me at times). It is full of mercy and the fruit of good deeds. It shows no favoritism and is always sincere. And those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest. 

If we do not like the results we see in our life, may need to seek the wisdom from above so that we have the peace and joy we all so long for, especially in this frantic, hurried world of unrest and contention that we are surrounded by each day.
