Wisdom Wins
In 2019, do you want to live BUSY or do you want to live BIG?
What does a BIG life look like? The million-dollar question.
Jesus is the wisest man who ever lived, He is the Wisdom of God after all. In order to live BIG instead of busy, we must identify what is most important. Jesus told his disciples this is most important: “Love one another as I have loved you.”
Love is the BIGGEST power in the world and to live with BIG love takes practice.
Not only does it take practice to DO acts of love, but also, to BE love. An emphasis on doing can lead us to live BUSY.
What about slowing down to practice love in your thinking?
This year, what you choose to practice in your thinking will make your brain habits. What type of thoughts have you been practicing? These are creating your automatic thought patterns. We live BIG when we love with a whole heart. When our intention, our thoughts and our actions beat with love.
God is love. (1 John 4:16)
Jesus is God. (Col 2:9)
Jesus is the Wisdom of God. (1 Corinthians 1:24)
Wisdom is the capacity to apply knowledge, logic and reason in the world in BIG ways. Solomon was the second wisest of all humans, and God offered him ANYTHING he wanted. He chose Wisdom. He wanted to live Big.
Information without wisdom and love lead to a BUSY life, not a BIG one.
A simple Prayer for 2019: Father, this year, I don’t want to simply know more. I want to expand my capacity to use what I know, to make your love BIG in the world.
