The wisdom of Solomon is legendary.. He was as we say, WAY AHEAD OF HIS TIME! One day two women came to him to settle a dispute over who owned a newborn infant.. Conventional wisdom would have destroyed child,because one might never have guessed whose child it was, (they had no DNA testing..back then. Solomon knew the power of human emotion and the maternal instinct. When he called for the execution of the child..the real mother came forward, and sought for life of the child, even if it were given to another!
I have started a project that has always fascinated me, GUIDING PRINCIPLES. A QUICK DEVOTIONAL THAT NO ONLY GIVES A PROVERB A DAY, BUT ALSO SHARES A QUICK ON THE GO TIP OR PRINCIPLE TO USE FOR THE DAY ( OR IN ALL OF LIFE)
Today we are awash in information, and the internet keeps multiplying it every day! The Bible gives us time tested and generational truth that will outlast all generations.. these insights are by no means new, but perhaps I can give them a slightly different angle, if not humorous angle! I hope they are a blessing to you. I will write a few, but the bulk of my writings will result in my work and podcast which I hope to turn out later this year. Stay tune!
Proverbs 19:11 "A persons wisdom yields patience,but it is one's glory to overlook an offense"
Wow theres that word again Patience! Who wants it? after all everybody seems in a hurry! Get to the bottom line before I lose patience and get there first! Right here couched in this verse is one of wisdom's greatest secrets.
* the more wise a person is the more patient he becomes.
* while many stew and hold grudges, being bitter over the hurts of the past or present.. it is very good to overlook an offense!
* that crazy driver that leered at you and cut you off
* that lunatic at work that drove you up a wall
* rude and inconsiderate people are everywhere, It doesnt mean you
have to lose it!
The Bible also says that "Anger rests in the bosom of fools" A fool uttereth all his mind but a wise man keepeth his tongue.." so forth and so on.. I think you get the point here.. Take five is a very good piece of advice. Because if you didnt notice, it isnt hard to lets someonelse ruin your day!
So and so tells you off or a jerk stirs your emotions and before you know it, you are already to blow a gasket. A day that was once promising is now starting to turn a totally different hue!
Guiding Principle: Take five and learn patience..Pick your battles wisely and dont fester over real or perceived hurts..Its a much better use of your time and limited energy!
