MONDAY, DECEMBER 6, 2010 PURSUIT OF WISDOMEveryone wants wisdom, but what is it
really, and where do we find it? Wisdom is God's heart combined with street
smarts, the vertical intersecting with the horizontal. Wisdom applies our
relationship with God to our relationships with others, including our tasks. We
were designed to have a heart for wisdom (Proverbs 3:5-6; 22:17-18), to desire
wisdom (Proverbs 3:15), and to pursue wisdom with our time, talent, and
treasure (Proverbs 4:7).
But where do we find it? Wisdom begins
with a humble, malleable, clay-like heart toward God, the author of wisdom (Proverbs
1:7, 11:2; 22:4).
Foolishness, the antithesis of wisdom, is derived from a proud heart,
one that breaks apart the vertical from the horizontal. The result is a
four-walled imprisonment in legalism or license that leaves us unrestored and
dissatisfied. That prison gate is unlocked with the cross-shaped Master Key of
full surrender to Christ the Restorer.
