James 1:5-6

The Lord is our perfect Mentor! When I read these verses today, it made me gratefully realize that God is there for me to ask advice from, to glean wisdom from. Because of faith, I can come to him when I am experiencing any difficulty, trial, misunderstanding, or hurt and ask him for whatever I need: how to deal or react to the situation, how to persevere and witness to others, how to see the situation through His eyes. It is such a soothing thought how God nurtures us when we sit at his feet looking for guidance. He won't turn away a humble and sincere plea for wisdom and understanding in any hardship or sin I face.
Although we deserve it, He won't even remind us of our past mistakes and how we lacked in faith or wisdom then; he rather lovingly desires to give us all good things now.
Ask, seek, and knock - trustingly.

"No good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless." (Psalm 84:11)

And Wisdom herself is one of the best things!!!
Have a relaxing evening, sweet daughters of the King :)
