THOUGHT FOR THE DAY--- One is truly wise who gains his wisdom from above. But the wisdom from above 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 favoritism and is always sincere. —JAMES 3:17 (NLT) The wisdom that comes from God is first pure; in thought, word, and deed, it is clean. It is pure in spirit and body, in doctrine and practice, in faith and in morals, it is undefiled. Wisdom from God is peace loving and this simply means that a wise man loves peace, and will do all he can to maintain peace without sacrificing purity. True wisdom is also gentle; it is forbearing, not overbearing, courteous, not crude. A wise man is a gentleman, respectful of the feelings of others. The next characteristic is willing to yield which means conciliatory, approachable, open to reason, ready to give in when truth requires it. Wisdom from above is full of mercy and good fruits. It is full of mercy to those who are in the wrong, and anxious to help them find the right way; it is compassionate and kind. READ 1 SAMUEL 24:1-10
