Understanding

In society and in our homes, we need more understanding between family members and people in general. Is being understood really that hard? Even in churches, it is sometimes hard to get along with people and it takes an understanding heart to do so. So…how can we manage to do this? Is it even possible without the help of the Holy Spirit?

I don’t have the answer to this question and I can’t find the answer except by prayer and reading in God’s Word! Why do I always go there? Because God is our Creator and our Savior and His wisdom is so far above the wisdom of mankind, that’s why I go to Him for all of my answers.

I know that He won’t lie to me and His answer will always be the right answer! God loves each of us and HE wants us to be happy and healthy. If we aren’t, it may be due to our own actions or it is because we haven’t followed closely enough when walking with Him. Understanding life and all of the things in it is hard to do, because it is like being a parent. There is no manual, no study guide to help you with caring for and raising a child unless you use the Bible as your manual. The wisdom contained in it surpasses all of the philosophy classes in any college.

We are flawed human beings and we all make mistakes. God is perfect and able to help us with our life and with raising children because we are all His children. He has had many years of experience, so going to Him should be a decision which is a “no brainer”! Can you raise a child without Him or His wisdom? Yes, but their life and yours will be exposed to more trouble and pain than it would’ve been if you had sought out His wisdom first.
