If you do not have wisdom, ask God for it. He is always ready to give it to you and will never say you are wrong for asking.
- James 1:5 (NLV)
Sometimes we have questions, I mean who doesn’t?
Sometimes we go to other people for answers and sometimes we “google” the answers.
When I was growing up (I am about to age myself here) if I asked a question I was often told to look it up, which meant going to the Encyclopedia or the library.
Kids today have things so much easier with “the googles” but they still need to be careful because not everything on the internet is true (what???).
Wisdom can be found through many sources, but the best wisdom will come from God.
Check out this song:
I'm so very ordinary, nothing special on my own.
Oh, I have never walked on water,
And I have never calmed a storm.
Sometimes I'm hiding away from the madness around me
Like a child who's afraid of the dark
But when I call on Jesus,
All things are possible
I can mount on wings like eagles' and soar
When I call on Jesus,
Mountains are gonna fall
'Cause He'll move heaven and earth to come rescue me when I call
Weary brother, broken daughter,
Widowed, widowed lover, you're not alone
If you're tired and scared of the madness around you
If you can't find the strength to carry on
But when I call on Jesus,
All things are possible
I can mount on wings like eagles' and soar
When I call on Jesus,
Mountains are gonna fall
'Cause He'll move heaven and earth to come rescue me when I call
Call Him in the morning, in the afternoon time
Late in the evening He'll be there
When your heart is broken,
And you feel discouraged,
You can just remember that He said
He'll be there
When we have something on our mind that we just can’t figure out, we can find answers by calling God.
There was also a thing called a phonebook when I was growing up, another place you could find information.
The Bible has a phonebook:
Problem | Call: |
When in sorrow | |
When men fail you | |
When you have sinned | |
When you worry | |
When you are in danger | |
When God seems far away | |
When your faith needs stirring | |
When you are lonely and fearful | |
When you grow bitter and critical | |
When you feel down and out | |
When you want peace and rest | |
When the world seems bigger than God | |
When you want Christian assurance | |
When you leave home for labor or travel | |
When your prayers grow narrow or selfish | |
When you want courage for a task | |
When you think of investments and returns | |
If you are depressed | |
If your pocketbook is empty | |
If you are losing confidence in people | |
If people seem unkind | |
If discouraged about your work | |
If self pride/greatness takes hold | |
If you want to be fruitful | |
For understanding of Christianity | |
For a great invention/opportunity | |
For how to get along with fellow men | |
For Paul’s secret to happiness | |
ALTERNATE NUMBERS: | |
For dealing with fear | |
For security | |
For assurance | |
For reassurance |
PLEASE NOTE:
Emergency numbers may be dialed direct.
No operator assistance is necessary.
All lines to Heaven are open 24 hours a day!
We can trust the wisdom received from the Father way more than the internet.
