Pearl 270: More
September 27, 2013
TOPIC: Organization and Wisdom
"Wisdom has built her house,
She has hewn out her seven pillars;
She has prepared her food, she has mixed her wine;
She has also set her table" - Proverbs 9:1-2.
As stated in this devotional many times, you need more wisdom in your life if you are going to have purpose and build on that purpose. Building requires an orderly plan, and having a dinner party does as well. How do you get wisdom? You get it by asking the Lord, by listening, by learning from experience, by learning from others and by making some mistakes. Ultimately, it is a gift of God but He gives this gift so you can do something and that will at some point require you to organize your life's work and ministry. What house are you building? What dinner party are you preparing? In other words, what project or work are you involved in that requires more insight and wisdom than you have today?
Lord, today I ask You for wisdom - wisdom to build the house in which my purpose will reside, wisdom to prepare a meal that will bless many people. To get to that point tomorrow, I need more today, more of You, more of Your insight and more of Your love for others. Lord, I suppose I just need more!
