35 For whoever finds me finds life and obtains favor from the Lord, 36 but he who fails to find me injures himself; all who hate me love death. ~ Proverbs 8:35-36
Wisdom doesn’t come naturally. You aren’t just born wise. Wisdom has to be sought out and found. Wisdom comes only through Christ, for wisdom is His, and He gives to whoever seeks her diligently. In order to attain the wisdom of God, we must first forsake our own wisdom, our own understanding. Why? Because His ways and thoughts are higher than our ways and thoughts. Our own wisdom cannot even compete with His foolishness.
Therefore, forsake what you think you know and seek the LORD. Search His Scriptures. Meditate on His Word. Seek His Holy Spirit that He might guide you in all the ways of righteousness.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Forsake Yourself.
