πŸ’₯ Reasons


Recently God called this to my attention:  When a person gives us a list of reasons is he not reasoning from his own mind?

When we seek God as to what we should do, don't we say:  "I believe God showed me this."

Proverbs 3:5  Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Certainly our own understanding, our own reasoning could be faulty.

James 1:5  If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

I have begun re-reading the Old Testament.  Today I began asking God to give me wisdom as I read these scriptures.  (As a new Christian, I wrote above each chapter of my paper Bible, "Ask God for wisdom."  I want to return to doing what I once did, asking for wisdom before reading.)
