“The wisdom that comes from above leads us to be pure, friendly, gentle, sensible, kind, helpful, genuine, and sincere.” (James 3:17 Common English Bible)

We can listen to human advice and try to be better people. We can devote ourselves to reading self-help books. We can spend a lot of time analyzing our personalities and their flaws or inadequacies. We can try to find guidance from others about what to do next in our lives, and to make decisions based on our past or on a sense of time or fear.

But these solutions only take us so far. Both the approach and the outcome are limited. God’s wisdom is above all this. It comes from a place of true knowing—from Truth itself –and it is backed by Love. We can stop listening to all the voices that would get us fearful or doubting, full of blame or shame. We can awake to God’s clear and loving wisdom, which is pure, entirely good, and transcends what the physical senses or human knowledge might assess to be real or right.

This divine wisdom comes with loving intention, and it leads us to express that love as well. God’s wisdom causes us to move in accord with Him, with Love’s purpose and methods, so we find ourselves doing and being what is not only satisfying for us, but which demonstrates God’s nature to mankind. We put off selfishness and act with friendly regard for one another, with kindness, with sincerity, helpfulness, and gentle goodness.

The wisdom found through humble listening is uplifting and empowering. It brings us true enlightenment and encourages the actions that make this light seen and felt.
