    Wisdom

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Jul 3, 2022
     | 1,574 views

    Wisdom is a character quality that is developed by decision not by education.

    Wisdom comes from the Anglo-Saxon root word “wis” which means wise, understanding, truth, and knowing. It is also combined with the word “dom” which implies judgement. Wisdom is not just mere intelligence. Wisdom is a combining of an understanding of truth with the good judgement to apply that ...read more

    In this passage, Solomon is acting as a teacher instructing his students about life. He concludes with his observations about the purpose of life; and in his closing remarks we find four words of wisdom that can be applied to graduates.

    Today is our Graduate Recognition, and I feel led to share from a passage in Ecclesiastes. This book is believed to have been written by Solomon, since Ecclesiastes 1:1 says that these are “the words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.” To get started, I think these words can ...read more

    One thing that we all have in common is that we all want the best this life has to offer.

    What we do not have in common is the way we go about pursuing the best this life has to offer.

Their lives are consumed by ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,374 views

    Too many believers are waiting for the perfect scenario before they will serve the Lord. It’s an excuse that is often used for idleness and spiritual inactivity - the excuse that it’s not an ideal time or situation in which to serve.

    There is no ideal place to serve God except the place where He has set you down. - Eric Alexander(1) The Lord wants us to bloom where we’re planted, and to serve Him faithfully right where we are. He doesn’t want us to sit around waiting for the “perfect situation” before we serve Him. If we ...read more
