It’s a daydream. I’m speeding down the interstate, seething about someone who did me wrong, when I see the flashing lights of a police motorcycle behind me. I pull over, and up walks a larger-than-life person in dazzling white clothing. It’s not the police, but an angel from heaven, who tickets me for DUWI—Driving Under the World’s Influence.
It’s a probing question: Do I spend more time under the world’s guidance than God’s? After all, we become like those with whom we most associate.
The Bible talks about King Solomon being so wise, the whole world sought an audience with him, to hear the wisdom God put in his heart (1 Kings 10:24).
Am I seeking an audience with the world, or vice-versa?
My satellite television provider wants me to watch their programing on all my devices. “We live in a go anywhere, go anytime world,” they say.
Agreed. But when we arrive at our destination, will it be someplace worth going?
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight.
1 Corinthians 3:19a (NIV)
Thankfully, the Bible also talks about how anyone who lacks wisdom, should ask God for it, just like Solomon did, and the Lord delivers—with no belittling (James 1:5).
Kind reader, no matter how “smart” the world becomes, it will never be wiser than the God who created it.
I’m preaching to the choir now. 🎶😇🎶
Thank you for reading. Prayers and love. 🙏❤️
But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.
James 3:17 (NIV)
