Wisdom and Knowledge

Posted by Tracy Wainwright at 9:03 PM
As moms, two things we need most are wisdom and knowledge. There's lots of "knowledge" available today in jsut about every form you can imagine. However, there is only one source for true, unchanging knowledge and wisdom. As I heard Beth Moore say the other day (on Life Today with James and Betty Robison), I'm ready to get desperate for something I can have. From prison Paul wrote to the Colossians that he was praying for them and "asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding." (vs. 9) That's what I want! To be FILLED with the KNOWLEDGE of HIS WILL through ALL SPIRITUAL WISDOM and UNDERSTANDING! I'm desperate God. Please fill me.

I LOVE that..."I'm ready to get desperate for something I CAN have." That is something we could all benefit from. Learning to be happy with what you can have and what you already have....(which is probably quite enough). I have learned to live in a more content mind-frame over the years. I guess maybe some of that just comes with age, but I think it is also a decision we each have to make...over and over. Contentment is easier than we think. God is great, and he IS enough!!!! :)
