James: Wisdom Worth Asking For
from Northstar Church Blacksburg · host Jeff Noble
Continuing our series on the book of James, in James 1:5-8 we are encouraged to seek wisdom in trials, knowing that this wisdom comes from God and is given generously when we ask for it.We need to recognize that there is a difference between knowledge and wisdom, as well as between earthly and godly wisdom. Wisdom is not a commodity that is available only to a few; it is something anyone can attain. Instead, biblical wisdom is being able to see and understand God's perspective on what we ask Him about. Walking in wisdom on a daily basis requires us to live in trusting faith, guided and informed by God's truth, and actively choosing paths and responding to life in ways that show we value God's Word above our own desires or fears. Remember the source from which we receive wisdom, and remember the Savior with whom we walk in wisdom!
