I have been playing around with this diagram for the last little while.....
Some of it comes out of a few scriptures in Proverbs
like:
15:14 The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge,
but the mouths of fools feed on folly.
15:33 The fear of the LORD is instruction in wisdom,
and humility comes before honor.
16:16 How much better to get wisdom than gold!
To get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.
and Yesterday made a connection in the New Testiment:
Colossians 3:1 If then you have been raised with Christ,
seek the things that are above,
where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.
2 Set your minds on things that are above,
not on things that are on earth.
3 For you have died,
and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
4 When Christ who is your life appears,
then you also will appear with him in glory.
9 Do not lie to one another,
seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices
10 and have put on the new self,
which is being renewed
in knowledge
after the image of its creator.
Knowledge of the Image of Christ...
Lord, remind me of the
Focus today...
That I would see the world
Not as info or data or even
Wisdom as the 'goal'
But to Know You
and be Like You....
Renewed.
New.
Yeah.
