Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. — James 3:13 KJV
Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. — James 3:13 NIV
Thought and Reflection
The personality of a humble and loving way of life shows who is really the wise one. It is so natural for people to act haughtily yet in God’s eyes they are more terrible than senseless; they are horribly ignorant. Wisdom isn’t tied in with knowledge but about carrying on with a genuine godly life. Which all the more intently looks like you to in your walk with Jesus — wisdom showed through a humble and loving way of life with feelings of arrogance and superiority?
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, teach me share the care that you have showed on me with the person who most needs it today. Protect me from superiority and feelings of arrogance, and grant me a humble heart in the ways that make me a more useful tool in your mighty hands. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
