Wisdom

"If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him."  -James 1:5

Today's Scripture tells us if we lack wisdom, we are to ask God.  Let me tell you what it literally means.  If you lack wisdom, ask of the "giving" God.  Have you thought of God as the "giving" God?  What does it mean to you that God yearns to pour out His blessing upon you?  Do you say to yourself, "Oh goodie, goodie, let me see what I can get from God?"  Or does it humble you to know that the Almighty God who created the air you breathe, the ground you walk upon, and the body you are draped in...this God loves you and wants to bless you?  I pray it is the latter, for that is the heart of a child of God. 

Humble yourself before Almighty God and ask Him to create in you the heart of a child who longs for the Father more than anything else.
