Ther was a comment about the post on James 1:5 “I DOn’t Know If That Is True.” If what is true? I have to ask that question because… The world today is on a down hill slide. I was just reflecting on how things were in the 50′s and 60′s. In the 70′s thing really started down hill. Now we aren’t even safe in our own homes or from our own family members.
There is so much hate in this world. People of certain beliefs are killing their own let alone inocent victims! The greed in the world, right now. Where is the wisdom? There is none!
The bible teaches love, unity and understanding of one another. Help the less fortunate. I don’t know, I think the world has it all backwards.

If any of you needs wisdom, you should ask God for it.
Thomas came with doubts. Did Christ turn him away?
Moses had his reservations. Did God tell him to go home?
Job had his struggles. Did God avoid him?
Paul had his hard times. Did God abandon him?
No. God never turns away the sincere heart. Tough questions don’t stump God. He invites our probing.
Mark it down. God never turns away the honest seeker. Go to God with your questions. You may not find all the answers, but in finding God, you know the One who does.

God knows all and knows what needs to be done. I do have first hand experience. We lost our song writer/keyboard player. First I was upset because he is very talented and I work closely with him on a lot of projects. Second I didn’t know what the band would do? It seemed as though everything was hinged around him. I then started talking with God on what to do. He reminded me of how He provided all that was needed, including the talented people to build the first Tabernacle which He told Moses to build. He told me to look within the household of faith.
We do have the talent and we do have the expertice to do all thing, we especially have God who has provided all things including knowledge and wisdom.
