The Key To Happiness And Contentment Lies in Striking A Balance Between Knowledge And Wisdom

"Wisdom From Heaven" by Jess Ray

[Verse 1]

Thanks for sharing
What you're streaming

All the books that
You've been reading

There is some good there
I won't deny it

Say, "I'm above it."
Then I'd be lying

[Pre-Chorus]

But my brain is broken

My soul is shaken

Under the weight of all this information (Knowledge)

My heart is heavy

My spirit's screaming

Head above water

[Chorus]

Oh how I need
Wisdom from Heaven

Oh how I need to learn to listen
To His tongue

From Heaven

Oh how I need to learn to listen
I need to learn to listen

[Verse 2]

There is a river
Flows through the ages

Therе is a path made
A way that's ancient

We'rе in a storm
We have a history

Something to lean on

[Chorus]

Oh how I need
Wisdom from Heaven

Oh how I need to learn to listen
To His tongue

From Heaven

Oh how I need to learn to listen
I need to learn to listen

[Bridge]

Your ways are not my ways
Your thoughts are not my thoughts

Oh God would you bring me up to where You are
Where You are

Your ways are not my ways
Your thoughts are not my thoughts

Oh God would you bring me up to where You are
Where You are

(Where You are) Where You are
(Where You are) Where You are
(Where You are) Where You are
(Where You are) Where You are
(Where You are) Where You are
(Where You are) Where You are
(Where You are) Where You are
(Where You are) Where You are

[Chorus]

Oh how I need
Wisdom from Heaven

Oh how I need to learn to listen
To His tongue

From Heaven

Oh how I need to learn to listen

I need to learn to listen

I need to learn to listen

I need to learn to listen (I need to learn)

Genesis 1:1 - KJV
1. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

While we don't know how "The One" Almighty God came "to be" (depicted in the image above), what we do clearly know from scripture is that everything started with the One Almighty God. Try to think of an absolutely massive sphere representing God "before all things" and "in Him, and within Him", the essence of all future creation to follow. The source of all knowledge and truth. The "Alpha" (Beginning) and the "Omega" (End).

Interestingly enough, though, even before God created the Earth (presumably after the creation of the angels), we have a rather interesting - and, dare I say, very important - revelation from the Book of Wisdom in the Old Testament version of the Bible...

Wisdom 1:9 - NRSV
9. With you is wisdom, she who knows your works and was present when you made the world;

What the heck did we just read there? "Wisdom" (she) was "present when [God] made the world"! Woah! If that strikes you as even the least bit interesting, please continue reading below.

So, based on what we've just read above, envision something like the following image...

More to come, but for now...

Google search "Bible Book of Wisdom"

See Chapters 1 and Chapter 9

Pray for God's Wisdom to defeat any fear, anxiety, or worse condition you may find yourself in from time-to-time. Remember, "For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven" and "This too shall pass!"

Mental Health Advocacy Notice

And don't forget people, "take your meds" if a doctor has diagnosed you with any kind of significant mental health condition! God expects us to "do our part" in this equation as well.

No excuses for "I don't feel like myself when I take them" or any of that crap! I take mine....you take yours. Agree?

More to follow. Much more for follow.

God has your back, but He also expects us...He expects "you" to do your part as well.

Until next time. Take care, and God bless!
