Words of Encouragement –Goodness

 

James 3:17-18

17 But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy and good deeds. It shows no partiality and is always sincere. 18 And those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of goodness. (NLT)

True wisdom comes from God. True wisdom does not come with arrogance, pride or self- righteousness. But true wisdom is first pure then peace loving, gentle, merciful with good deeds. It shows no partiality, is always sincere and does come from a college education. Wisdom comes from a close walk with the Lord Jesus Christ. The world believes that by a higher education comes true knowledge and wisdom. This is a lie. Education does help you learn skills but real wisdom comes from God. By walking with God each and every day you will reap a harvest of goodness. Goodness is an outworking in your life of the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit changing you as you draw nearer to them.
