There's More to it than Wisdom.

Proverbs 3:7
7 Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom.
Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil.


We know that God is awesome because of his vast amount of holiness. He also has a great deal of power, grace, and love. There's no way any of us can top him. He is way beyond our abilities.

Have you even come across a word that is long, difficult to pronounce, and incomprehensible? This leaves you not even understanding the meaning. Many times the only option is to break the word down if we absolutely have to determine what it means. This can help with pronunciation and meaning.

The same is true with God. God's mighty power is so big and strong that it can't be identified sometimes. How do we go about getting an idea of God's power then? Examine the smallest acts of glory. This helps to understand better how God works.

We must remember that evilness along with other emotions can be contagious. We have to avoid being separate from God. You may have small peaks of glory but God doesn't want a small amount of you!

Let us understand what evil is. In addition, thanks for giving us your grace and holiness.
