WISDOM FTD-BE HUNGRY FOR THE RIGHT KNOWLEDGE
WISDOM FOR THE DAY: BE HUNGRY FOR THE RIGHT KNOWLEDGE
Proverbs 15:14
"A wise person is hungry for knowledge, while the fool feeds on trash."
What we feed our minds is just as important as what we feed our bodies. The kinds of books we read, the people we talk with, the music we listen to, and the films we watch are all part of our mental diet. Be discerning because what you feed your mind influences your total health and well-being. Thus, a strong desire to discover truth and knowledge is a mark of wisdom.
Our attitudes color our whole personality. We cannot always choose what happens to us, but we can choose our attitude toward each situation. The secret to a cheerful heart is filling our minds with thoughts that are true, pure, and lovely—dwelling on the good things in life ( Philippians 4:8 ). This was Paul’s secret as he faced imprisonment, and it can be ours as we face the struggles of daily living. Look at your attitudes and then examine what you allow to enter your mind and what you choose to dwell on. You may need to make some changes.
Remember this, everything you read, everything you watch, everything you listen to; these are your teachers! In other words, your life is a total reflection today of all the books you have ever read, all the things you have ever watched and everyone or everything you have ever listen to; whether in the class room , at work, at church, or even at home - it makes no difference. The platform where we receive knowledge may not be the problem but the kind of knowledge or information that we consume from the platforms - that is what changes our lives.
Friend, if your life is not going in the direction you want, then you can change it now. If you will change everything else will change for you. Look into your life and find out what is not working and change them; change the wrong friends, change the wrong books you read, change the wrong music or instructors that you listen to and embrace the right kind of knowledge that will lead you to fulfilling your dreams!
I testify that the wisdom of God is at work in me and for me. I attract the right people, things, and circumstances into my life because my thoughts are right and just, in Jesus Name Amen.
