New Meaning

This past weekend while on the Winter Retreat, the speaker Britton spoke on Wisdom.  There were several things he said that impressed upon me. One of which I've heard many times.


Proverbs 3:5 "Trust in the LORD with all your heart 
   and lean not on your own understanding;"


He emphasized leaning not on your own understanding. Elizabeth, don't lean on your logic; enlist the Holy Spirit to reveal to you. When that happens remember who the wisdom comes from. (Not me that's for sure.)


One more thing, Britton also said "Wisdom is crying out, but it's crying out in a noisy street."  Meaning, there are a lot of sources of information, most of which aren't wisdom. We need discernment and to be active in our pursuit of wisdom.
