The true test of wisdom


What I learned from Zac Poonen's true test of wisdom, just as an emphasis, the true test of wisdom is not when everything goes alright, it's not when everything is going okay and smooth, it's not when there's no problem. The true test of wisdom is that when everything goes wrong, when finances is zero, when sickness arises, when everything is shaking - what's your response with regards to the wisdom that God is giving you. When everything goes wrong, have you thank God? What about your emotion? Is it still okay? Or have you been disturb? when crisis strikes you, are you going to murmur or grumble about what God have done to you? In everything, good weather or bad weather comes, be still and know that God is in control and should be not disturbed and stay in his calmness and presence. That's wisdom, to put all the trust to God alone whatever happens as it says in Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."

"As long as there is no storm or flood in your life, you may look wise. The test of your wisdom is when the storms of your life come." - Zac Poonen
