GOD IS LOVE IN HIS WISDOM - WISDOM IS JESUS CHRIST!

GOD SPEAKS TO ME THROUGH THE WORD OF CHRIST, GOD REVEALS A PATTERN FOR SPIRITUAL LIVING IN CHRIST.

GOD IS LOVE IN HIS WISDOM: WISDOM IS JESUS CHRIST.

GOD DID NOT CREATE HUMANS AS PUPPETS TO PLEASE A TYRANNICAL DESIRE OF HIS OWN. GOD CREATED US OUT OF HIS OVERFLOWING LOVE AND GOODNESS. AND GOD MADE US ABLE TO RECIEVE ALL THE BLESSEDNESS WHICH GOD ORDAINED FOR US. GOD "THOUGHT" US IN THE RAPTURE OF GOD'S OWN GREAT HEART, AND LO, WE ARE! CREATED IN THE IMAGE OF GOD WE WERE INNOCENT OF EVIL, CAPABLE OF GREAT GOD - LIKE CAPACITIES.

"MY SON, IF YOU ACCEPT MY WORDS AND STORE UP MY COMMANDS WITHIN YOU, TURNNING YOUR EAR TO WISDOM AND APPLYING YOUR HEART TO UNDERSTANDING, AND IF YOU CALL OUT FOR INSIGHT AND CRY ALOUD FOR UNDERSTANDING, AND IF YOU LOOK FOR IT AS FOR SILVER AND SEARCH FOR IT AS FOR HIDDEN TREASURE, THEN YOU WILL UNDERSTAND THE FEAR OF THE LORD AND FIND THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD. FOR THE LORD GIVES WISDOM,AND FROM GOD'S MOUTH COME KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING. GOD HOLDS VICTORY IN STORE FOR THE UPRIGHT, GOD IS A SHEILD TO THOSE WHOSE WALK IS BLAMELESS, FOR GOD GUARDS THE COURSE OF THE JUST AND PROTECTS THE WAY OF GOD'S FAITHFUL ONES. THEN YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHAT IS RIGHT AND JUST AND FAIR - EVERY GOOD PATH. FOR WISDOM WILL ENTER YOUR HEART, AND KNOWLEDGE WILL BE PLEASANT TO YOUR SOUL. DISCRETION WILL PROTECT YOU, AND UNDERSTANDING WILL GUARD YOU. WISDOM WILL SAVE YOU FROM THE WAYS OF THE WICKED MEN, FROM MEN WHOSE WORDS ARE PERVERSE." (Prov.2:1-12)

"DOES NOT WISDOM CALL OUT? DOES NOT UNDERSTANDING RAISE HER VOICE? ON THE HEIGHTS ALONG THE WAY, WHERE THE PATHS MEET, SHE TAKES HER STAND; BESIDE THE GATES LEADING INTO THE CITY, AT THE ENTRANCES, SHE CRIES ALOUD; "TO YOU, O MEN, I CALL OUT; I RAISE MY VOICE TO ALL MANKIND. YOU WHO ARE SIMPLE, GAIN PRUDENCE; YOU WHO ARE FOOLISH, GAIN UNDERSTANDING. LISTEN, FOR I HAVE WORTHY THINGS TO SAY; I OPEN MY LIPS TO SPEAK WHAT IS RIGHT.
MY MOUTH SPEAKS WHAT IS TRUE, FOR MY LIPS DETEST
WICKEDNESS. ALL THE WORDS OF MY MOUTH ARE JUST; NONE OF THEM IS CROOKED OR PERVERSE. TO THE DISCERNING ALL OF THEM ARE RIGHT; THEY ARE FAULTLESS TO THOSE WHO HAVE KNOWLEDGE. CHOOSE MY INSTRUCTION INSTEAD OF SILVER, KNOWLEDGE RATHER THAN CHOICE GOLD, FOR WISDOM IS MORE PRECIOUS THAN RUBIES, AND NOTHING YOU DESIRE CAN COMPARE WITH HER.
"I, WISDOM, DWELL TOGETHER WITH PRUDENCE; I POSSESS KNOWLEDGE AND DISCRETION. TO FEAR THE LORD IS TO HATE EVIL; I HATE PRIDE AND ARROGANCE, EVIL BEHAVIOR AND PERVERSE SPEECH. COUNSEL AND SOUND JUDGEMENT ARE MINE; I HAVE UNDERSTANDING AND POWER. BY ME KINGS REIGN AND RULERS MAKE LAWS THAT ARE JUST; BY ME PRINCES GOVERN, AND ALL NOBLES WHO RULE ON EARTH. I LOVE THOSE WHO LOVE ME, AND THOSE WHO SEEK ME FIND ME. WITH ME ARE RICHES AND HONOR, ENDURING WEALTH AND PROSPERITY. MY FRUIT IS BETTER THAN FINE GOLD; WHAT I YEILD SURPASSES CHOICE SILVER. I WALK IN THE WAY OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, ALONG THE PATHS OF JUSTICE, BESTOWING WEALTH ON THOSE WHO LOVE ME AND MAKING THEIR TREASURIES FULL. THE LORD BROUGHT ME FORTH AS THE FIRST OF GOD'S WORKS, BEFORE GOD'S DEEDS OF OLD; I WAS APPOINTED FROM ETERNITY, FROM THE BEGINNING, BEFORE THE WORLD BEGAN. WHEN THERE WERE NO OCEANS, I WAS GIVEN BIRTH, WHEN THERE WERE NO SPRINGS ABOUNDING WITH WATER; BEFORE THE MOUNTAINS WERE SETTLED IN PLACE, BEFORE THE HILLS, I WAS GIVEN BIRTH, BEFORE GOD MADE THE EARTH OR ITS FIELDS OR ANY OF THE DUST OF THE WORLD. I WAS THERE WHEN GOD SET THE HEAVENS IN PLACE, WHEN GOD MARKED OUT THE HORIZON ON FACE OF THE DEEP, WHEN GOD ESTABLISHED THE CLOUDS ABOVE AND FIXED SECURELY THE FOUNTAINS OF THE DEEP, WHEN GOD GAVE THE SEA ITS BOUNDRY SO THE WATERS WOULD NOT OVERSTEP GOD'S COMMAND, AND WHEN GOD MARKED OUT THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH. THEN I WAS THE CRAFTSMAN AT GOD'S SIDE.
I WAS FILLED WITH DELIGHT DAY AFTER DAY, REJOICING ALWAYS IN GOD'S PRESENCE, REJOICING IN GOD'S WHOLE WORLD AND DELIGHTING IN MANKIND. NOW THEN, MY SONS, LISTEN TO ME; BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO KEEP MY WAYS. LISTEN TO MY INSTRUCTION AND BE WISE; DO NOT IGNORE IT. BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO LISTENS TO ME, WATCHING DAILY AT MY DOORS, WAITING AT MY DOORWAY. FOR WHOEVER FINDS ME FINDS LIFE AND RECEIVES FAVOR FROM THE LORD. BUT WHOEVER FAILS TO FIND ME HARMS HIMSELF; ALL WHO HATE ME LOVE DEATH. (Proverbs 8)

CHRIST IS THE PATTERN FOR MY LIFE, AND GOD IS TRANSFORMING ME TO THE PATTERN. SO I SAY THANKS BE TO GOD. AMEN!
