If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

Colossians 3:1-4

Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.

Set your mind and keep focused habitually on the things above [the heavenly things], not on things that are on the earth [which have only temporal value].

Seeking Wisdom:

Unlocking the Treasures of God's Knowledge

Introduction: Join us in exploring the profound truths and practical insights that can transform our lives as we seek after the wisdom that comes from God.

Scripture Passage: Proverbs 2:1-6 (KJV) Cross References: James 1:5, Proverbs 4:7-9, Colossians 2:2-3

Commentary: Proverbs 2:1-6 encourages us to incline our ear unto wisdom, apply our heart to understanding, cry out for knowledge, and search diligently for wisdom like hidden treasures. This passage promises that the Lord gives wisdom and knowledge, and from His mouth comes understanding.

James 1:5 assures us that if any lack wisdom, they should ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to them. This verse underscores the importance of seeking God's wisdom through prayer and dependence on Him.

Proverbs 4:7-9 extols the virtues of wisdom, urging us to get wisdom and with all our getting, get understanding. Wisdom is likened to the principal thing, and in all our getting, we are exhorted to get understanding.

Colossians 2:2-3 reveals that in Christ are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge, emphasizing the centrality of Christ in our pursuit of wisdom and understanding.

Questions:

How does seeking wisdom from God impact your decision-making and daily choices?

In what areas of your life do you need wisdom and understanding?

How can you apply the principles of wisdom found in Scripture to navigate challenges and uncertainties?

What steps can you take to deepen your knowledge of God and His ways through His Word?

Prayer: Heavenly Father, we humbly come before you seeking wisdom and understanding that can only come from you. Grant us the desire to diligently search for wisdom like hidden treasures, knowing that you are the source of all true knowledge. May the wisdom we gain from your Word transform our lives and glorify your name. Amen.

What do you say?

When you pray, what do you say?

If it’s time to say the Our Father, the Lord’s Prayer, we’re good. We’ve got that one down.

But what if they ask you to say grace at Thanksgiving or some big family dinner? With a bunch of random relatives and extra people around?

If that gets dropped on you with no warning? It can feel like every eye is on you. Like you’re going to be judged for what you say.

No pressure.

Of course, the reality is that no one is going to hold up a card with a number on it. Scoring your prayer. Giving you a “3” because it was pathetic.

But when you’re in the moment, it can feel just like that.

When someone asks you to pray for them, if they’re not asking you to lead a public prayer, that takes the pressure off. But the question is still there.

When you pray for them, what do you say?

I bring this up, because in Sunday’s homily, Fr. George asked us to pray for our children and grandchildren. When you do, what are you going to say?

If you know what you’re going to say to God, that’s great. But if you’re not sure, may I suggest praying Colossians 1:9-13?

“We have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of God’s will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to Him:

Bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; being strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy;

Giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light.”

Take Fr. George’s invitation to pray for them. Not just for children or grandchildren, but for anyone that you love and care about. Anyone that you want to support. Anyone that you want to grow closer to God.

When you do, keep that first part in there – “We have not ceased to pray for you.” Let it be a gentle reminder to keep praying for them.

And make it personal. Use their name in the prayer.

Be the instrument of grace that God has called you to be.
