Wisdom
“But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.” – JAMES 1:5
God’s wisdom comes through alignment of head and heart. I once hired a person because there was a task many felt he could perform, and because I liked him, even though I knew he had personal problems. I prayed for wisdom. My emotions said “Yes,” but my mind, “No.” I hired him anyway, and he proved to be the wrong person. He was hurt and we suffered.
I missed God’s wisdom on that matter because head and heart were not aligned. God promises us wisdom when we seek it in His way.
