never wise enough


saw this on the glass panes of 'Tangs' shopping centre
-Even wise men seek Jesus-


how true
most of us are familiar with the christmas story
the lack of rooms, the manger and stable, the shephards and the wise men
but lets not get into that whole story now [too early lah:)]


coming back to the "slogan" or whatever its called
indeed its a reminder that we need to seek God in all things
what for you may ask..
cos we have only finite knowledge vs an infinite God
and only HE truely knows what is going to happen
[an analogy being the oracle in 'the matrix']


we would never be wise enough to survive on our own
perhaps that is the beauty of everything..
knowing that the wisest thing[s] we can ever do is..
to learn to seek Him
to learn to find out His will for our lives through prayer
to have enough faith to trust in His answers
to read the bible
to seek the counsel of godly people
to be obedient enough to accept His plans for us


easy?
no way!
any practising christian out there will tell you that
but it helps to know that even the wise men sought Jesus out
they knew that there was someone out there greater than themselves


maybe its time to rem that we will never be wise enough?
esp with christmas just round the corner:)
