Wisdom requires humility

I am looking at Proverbs 13: 1-16

(Pride only breeds quarrels but wisdom is found in those that take advice v-10)

The responsibility of a parent and teaching our children is not an easy task, especially these days, being a good role model is hard work and its difficult to admit that we don't always know the answer to every situations. We don't want to look like bad parents or let our children down.
The writer of Proverbs takes a different approach, "When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom" (Proverbs 11:2). in other words its alright to not have all the answers. It is humility that enables us to ask and receive wisdom.
Pride blinds us and we are dependent on our own understanding and knowledge, we lack the capacity to accept others instructions and scorn them. We become "mockers" which is someone who does not listen to advice.(v1).
Humility is one of those virtues that can never be attained by focusing on it, however, there are things we can do that might help us to move forward in this area. Talking to a trusted friend, asking their opinion or advice, They might be able to suggest something that you never considered. Or maybe you could be the friend to give advice or help. You never know where it will lead you. We all need help and understanding sometimes...

Thank you Lord for your inspiration and wisdom.

Amen

Discernment

I am studying Philippians 1; 3-18

("and this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in the knowledge and depth of insight")

What a beautiful prayer. Paul also talks about struggle.
I have been battling with a health condition for many years now and knowing God's will, is so important to me. I have had some pretty challenging situations and scary times with my condition. It has been very emotional and trying to look at a positive future has had its ups and downs. However, I know I am not alone in my journey of struggles (we all have them), knowing God is there, makes all the difference to me.
Discernment is the spiritual practice that accesses and seeks to understand what God is trying to say. Underlining the understanding of discernment, is the belief that God speaks to His people in different ways - that His desires of communication with us is far greater, than our desire to hear (my blog in May,"The Same Love" video by Paul Baloche, is a brilliant example). Discernment is important so that when we  are confronted with testing times, we  ask ourselves "What is God doing in this situation?, Is he asking me to act, to watch, to speak? Do I go ahead or wait, Do I have to forgive, be patient, make a plan or write a Post it...? In discernment our love grows in depth of insight.

There is Hope

A prayer

Brothers and Sisters, we are never alone... 

Philippians 4:6-7

" Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your heart and minds in Jesus Christ".

Amen

Have a wonderful day.
