Body Language!

This little girl behind my Granddaughter
is either bored or anxious! Not
sure, but look at the body language!

We listen (with arms folded) to criticize; instead of listening to understand. It’s instilled in us to pushback with our opinions, rather than seek to prosper in God’s wisdom that is full of knowledge beyond our human understanding - unless we humble ourselves and submit and commit to His will and ways! 

As mentioned in my blog titled; “Wise In his own wisdom”, You learn and receive more knowledge by listening than talking. It is proven than a person only receives about 225 words of knowledge from talking, and 500 words of knowledge from listening.

This must be a big defect in us, because God has put it on my heart again to write about seeking to understand His Word to gain Godly Wisdom; and the only way to receive it is to read His Word and listen to Godly advice! 

Proverbs 4:4-9 AMPC

4 He taught me and said to me, Let your heart hold fast my words; keep my commandments and live.

5 Get skillful and godly Wisdom, get understanding (discernment, comprehension, and interpretation); do not forget and do not turn back from the words of my mouth.

6 Forsake not [Wisdom], and she will keep, defend, and protect you; love her, and she will guard you.

7 The beginning of Wisdom is: get Wisdom (skillful and godly Wisdom)! [For skillful and godly Wisdom is the principal thing.] And with all you have gotten, get understanding (discernment, comprehension, and interpretation).

8 Prize Wisdom highly and exalt her, and she will exalt and promote you; she will bring you to honor when you embrace her.

9 She shall give to your head a wreath of gracefulness; a crown of beauty and glory will she deliver to you.
