Liberal Wisdom

𝕀𝕥 𝕒𝕝𝕝 𝕔𝕠𝕞𝕖𝕤 𝕕𝕠𝕨𝕟 𝕥𝕠 𝕜𝕟𝕠𝕨𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝔾𝕠𝕕.  Knowing the character of God.  Knowing that He is a God who gives liberally, openly and with sincerity, not for one moment thinking of reminding you of just how unworthy you are.  The Father weaves wisdom into your life until it is an inexplicable part of who you are.  He braids in knowledge of both things human and supernatural and folds in understanding.  He gives you the gift of having a “word in season” and teaches you how to impart Christian truth to encourage and strengthen the one who is struggling.  He pours out intelligence upon you and lavishes you with the knowledge of how to live a Godly life.  𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗱𝗼𝗺, 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆!  Not simply a “help me make the right choice,” but so much more!   

James 1:5-8 tells us; “𝑰𝒇 𝒂𝒏𝒚 𝒐𝒇 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒌𝒔 𝒘𝒊𝒔𝒅𝒐𝒎, 𝒍𝒆𝒕 𝒉𝒊𝒎 𝒂𝒔𝒌 𝒐𝒇 𝑮𝒐𝒅, 𝒘𝒉𝒐 𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒍𝒊𝒃𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒓𝒆𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒂𝒄𝒉, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒊𝒕 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒃𝒆 𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒏 𝒕𝒐 𝒉𝒊𝒎.  𝑩𝒖𝒕 𝒍𝒆𝒕 𝒉𝒊𝒎 𝒂𝒔𝒌 𝒊𝒏 𝒇𝒂𝒊𝒕𝒉, 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒏𝒐 𝒅𝒐𝒖𝒃𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈, 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒉𝒐 𝒅𝒐𝒖𝒃𝒕𝒔 𝒊𝒔 𝒍𝒊𝒌𝒆 𝒂 𝒘𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒆𝒂 𝒅𝒓𝒊𝒗𝒆𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒕𝒐𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒅 𝒃𝒚 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒊𝒏𝒅.  𝑭𝒐𝒓 𝒍𝒆𝒕 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒎𝒂𝒏 𝒔𝒖𝒑𝒑𝒐𝒔𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒓𝒆𝒄𝒆𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒚𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒇𝒓𝒐𝒎 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑳𝒐𝒓𝒅; 𝒉𝒆 𝒊𝒔 𝒂 𝒅𝒐𝒖𝒃𝒍𝒆–𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒅 𝒎𝒂𝒏, 𝒖𝒏𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 𝒊𝒏 𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒘𝒂𝒚𝒔.”

We need to ask for this wisdom, and we need to ask in faith.  Not wavering between the hope that He will give it to us and the fear that He won’t!  We need faith, simple faith in the One who gave us life, salvation, and redemption.  Faith that Jesus Christ is who He says He is. Faith in His Word and in the character of God, in His goodness, in His kindness, and in His love for us.  𝗪𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗳𝗮𝗶𝘁𝗵, 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗳𝗮𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝗚𝗼𝗱.  It is not the quantity of your faith that matters; it is the object of your faith. Who do you put your faith in?  Just trust, just believe, and rest in who God is believing He will give you abundant wisdom!
