WHOSE UNDERSTANDING?
Wisdom of Sirach 5:10-11 LXX
Be established in your understanding
And let your word be consistent.
Be quick to listen
And give your answer with patience.
Personal Challenge
It is so easy to get wrapped up in our own, personal knowledge and understanding and believe that we are doing things God's way. If we are not focusing on God's Wisdom (Christ) and God's understanding then we are destined to make decisions that are inconsistent with Him. Once we start yielding our lives to Him and desire His way and His Wisdom, then we must strive to keep our words consistent with His. Part of this comes from being quick to listen and slow to speak. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
