James 1:5

Decisions come in every situation of life. Even simple decisions as brushing my teeth or what t-shirt am I wearing today have consequences. Most of the times, in our imprudence, we take certain details and actions for granted. We need wisdom to take these decisions correctly. Although experience helps us, situations can vary and leave us with an uncertain movement. Then is where wisdom takes action, but for being able to have a good development; wisdom most be in ourselves and not any kind of wisdom: heavenly wisdom who es given by our heavenly Father. 

We can develop in different areas of our lives, such as: emotional, physical, intellectual or spiritual. For sure we are not in the same level of growth for each area. The growth can vary, mostly by our convictions and our taken decisions. It is noble to want to grow, but for being able to grow in the correct way we most first see how has been our walk. That will lead us to what we have done correct and wrong, to failing and succeeding situations. God wants us to ask for his wisdom, but really need to have in our minds what we need to ask for. More clear petitions, more clear answers. There is need of wisdom to keep improving what we are doing right and to correct what we have done wrong. Our trust shall be in Him, knowing that He will pour wisdom generously.

I have been someone that likes the spotlight but never liked the process. My lack of commitment in several journeys of my life, had lead me to only “OK” results. Being imprudent with friends and by myself, took into sin. Although I knew about wisdom, I didn’t want to hear it, I was in a rebel sort of way. God’s love never left, after the struggle I acknowledge the real meaning of the cross. Accepted His correction and call. 

Application:

Think twice what I am going to say or do.

1 Corinthians 9:22

What another demonstration of love to our neighbors or to people than to be emphatic with their lives and share with them the gospel? Knowing that God called me to be a disciple and to share the gospel to people has opened my eyes. His calling qualifies me, even though I feel like I am not ready or don’t have enough love for others, I have stopped trying and just letting Him work in me and through me.  Being honest, it is hard for me to be open to all people I face or get to know, but it is even harder when it is people that I know or are my friends. I believe this happens because of my lack of faith in Him. Now that I am in a real relationship with Him, my love and passion has been growing. My heart opens more and more every new time we get to do outreaches or share the gospel.  I can’t love people with my heart, but I can love them with His love. In my strength is hard to lay down and try to talk to everyone, but His faithfulness and passion for them is what makes me move. N

Hebrews 11:1

It seems that for all our lives and during every phase, we humans actually keep on wishing, wanting, and expecting  for something to happen or to come up to. Most of us will be influenced by the circumstances in our lives and the words of other people. It seems that we are constantly under pressure and bombarded with things that we don’t  even expect; like if we would become the person that the circumstances are dictating or what other people  are saying. Our expectations of life and the desires or hopes of our heart are biased to the wrong way.  Hebrews helps us define what faith really is, if we pay close attention. It is faith that is what holds all of these points, letting  us know what really is going wrong is our faith’s direction. We have the steering wheel of our own faith, it is us who  decide where we want it to be anchored or to whom or what we rely it on.  During my life I have been always a dreamer, having life goals, and constantly looking towards the

Luke 21:19

While I was thinking of standing still, a soldier was illustrated in my mind. When a superior calls a soldier to stand still, the soldier must leave whatever he is doing and come up firming his body. Then he has an attitude of listener, because the superior surely has something important to say. After the superior finishes his command, the soldier must wait until he has permitted to “relax”.  We can take certain points out of this illustration. The soldier has attitudes of obedience, service, and discipline. Jesus is our chief in command and we are his soldiers, we have to fight for souls. As any soldier, we need to look sharp and in shape. Otherwise we are going to die. We shall seek Jesus daily to know him more and delight ourselves in Him; so that our faces can reflect Him. Our ears need to be sensible to His voice, in a battle of so much noise and action, confusing a command from a different source will have terrible consequences. Our most important weapon is His word, sharper
