James 3: 17 - 18

 

17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. 18 Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

I often pray for wisdom in my life, but what does Godly wisdom really look like?  How do we know that we are walking in the wisdom of God?

James gives us some insight into this question in verse 17… “But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy, and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.”Now that is a mouthful!

Wisdom from God changes the way we act, the way we walk and talk.  It makes us more like our Savior.

Then James gives us more details about our wisdom walk.  He says, “ Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.” Are you making peace? How is your wisdom walk looking today?
