Get Wisdom
(Prov. 4:5??)

Our life is series of choices. What to choose in our life shapes whether to succeed or not. Right choice needs wisdom. The one with wisdom to choose Jesus who is the most important and valuable in life will have real success in his or her life.

1. Acquire wisdom

The writer of Proverb asks us to get wisdom. The wisdom of the bible means the word of God. Jesus is living word of God. Therefore, we should accept Jesus in our hearts in any cases. The things that we cherish in the world including money, reputation and relationships are temporary and will vanish like fog. However, Jesus will be eternal life and joy. We should put down worldly things and choose Jesus. We should reach out God by opening our hands grabbing the things in the world. Then, God will fill the hands with his amazing blessings.

2. Don't forsake wisdom

When we first met Jesus and received forgiveness and grace, our hearts were filled with joy and thanks. However, it becomes more difficult to keep joy and thanks in our hearts after we experience various tests and temptations. Although the tests are harder and temptations are sweeter, we should not be away from Jesus. Once we are away from Jesus after we fall down because of tests, we become the slaves of death because we are bound by the devils. The reason we fall down is to lose the first love toward Jesus. We should restore the first love which we had when we encountered Jesus. If we are in close relationships with Jesus, we can overcome any types of tests. Even in the adversities and temptations of the world, the people who keep faith and love in Jesus will have wonderful blessings.

3. Exalt wisdom

People have desire to be lifted. However God is the only one who has to be exalted. When we lift God, God will accept us and make us glorified. David spent his life honoring God during his life. When he was a shepherd or a king, he served God with unchanged love. God made David lifted and helped him to be a great king of Israel. David was lifted by God, not by himself. The same goes for our life. When we lift God, God will do. Lift God in the all aspects of life. God will give us amazing grace.
