BYBELSE WYSHEID

Spreuke 3:3,4: Laat liefde en trou jou nie verlaat nie; bind dit om jou hals, skryf dit op die tafel van jou hart, dan sal jy genade vind en 'n goeie insig in die oë van God en die mense - OAV -1953)

Ek moet erken dat ek soms voel asof ek nie groei nie, maar eerder agteruit beweeg. Soms is my geestelike lewe warm en soms koud. Soms is dit net louwarm. Soms is daar hoogtepunte en soms laagtepunte.

Die wysheid wat God gee, veroorsaak 'n opskudding in ons lewens. As God ons wysheid leer, sal daar altyd beweging in ons lewe wees. Positiewe groei vind plaas as ons aan die voete van God sit, sy stem hoor en naby hom bly. Stagnasie kom voor wanneer ons ons rug op Hom draai.

Sonder God se wysheid is 'n afwaartse kurwe van negatiewe 'groei' die resultaat. Positiewe groei, 'n opwaartse kurwe, is die gevolg van gemeenskap met God.

Wat is hierdie positiewe groei? Die digter sê dat die aanleer van God se wysheid, getrouheid en lojaliteit beteken (3:4). Die digter sê dat liefde en lojaliteit of trou die kenmerke moet wees van diegene op die pad van wysheid. Dit klink presies soos die eienskappe van God (Eksodus 34: 6).

Wat beteken dit? Dit is eenvoudig. God roep ons op om soos Hy te wees. Iets van God moet in ons lewens wees. Dit is duidelik dat die Nuwe Testament ons oproep om soos Jesus te wees - die toonbeeld van God se liefde en trou (Johannes 1: 14-18).

Gees van God, help my om in gemeenskap met God te groei, deur Jesus Christus. Amen
