It’s so nice when we find something or someone we can really trust.

Whether it’s a case of turning the ignition and ALWAYS having the car start or a case of turning to a friend who ALWAYS listens, loves and looks for how best to help us, there is nothing better than the feeling of complete confidence in something or someone.

I was reminded of this principle this morning while reading from Proverbs 10:31.

From the mouth of the righteous comes the fruit of wisdom”

This brief passage is talking about more than just relevant information.

The reference to wisdom, of course, is describing tested information, PROVEN information that helps people make progress toward better lives.

We are called to seek wisdom from scripture, from the Holy Spirit’s inspiration and from other believers so that we can become more like Christ and accomplish more for His Kingdom.

As we pursue wisdom, God’s Spirit coordinates a supernatural process within our hearts and minds whereby His Truth and His purposes permeates our thoughts, our words and our actions.

That’s what overflows from our lips into the lives of others.

We trust the Word that Bible people tested and trusted.

And then we speak more like Bible people spoke.

We speak more righteously.

People will trust us more.

And some of them just might be more likely to turn to the One whom they can REALLY trust — Jesus Christ.

As always, I love you
Martin
