標  題: 智慧的判斷

經  節: 但智慧之子都以智慧為是。(路加福音七章35節)

這世界充滿各類的「專家」,要以個人的智慧說服你接受他們的看法。但神說,不是那些大聲喧嚷其主張的人,是最有智慧的人,而是那些經得起時間考驗的人,才是真有智慧。

你不能夠以爭執或辯論來證明智慧。智慧需要經過時間的考驗。有些人固執地認為自己的意見一定是最好的,不管這些人的觀點多具說服力,時間是最好的判斷工具。不是誰的聲音大,誰就是對的,乃是事情的果效證明他們是否有智慧。當你順服神的旨意時,有時會遇見反對勢力及一些不同意你智慧行動的批評。你的第一個反應很可能是為自己辯解,然而,如果耐心等待,時間比辯解更能顯露你行動的智慧。

神話語的智慧已經過曆世歷代的考驗,證實它是真理。以聖經來判斷你的所見所聞,是很重要的。心理學與哲學的趨勢會變來變去,但神的話語不因時間而有所改變。當你在輔導人時,要確定你的意見是源自聖經,不是你個人最佳的意見。只要你人生的抉擇是基於神的話語,時間會是你最好的辯護者,會證實你所選擇的智慧。如果一段時間後,你看到自己顯然是錯的,求神赦免你,並且在聖經中尋求神話語的指示。然後,順服那句話,觀看神如何將祂的智慧運行在你的生活當中。


Wisdom Justified

But wisdom is justified by all her children. (Luke 7:35)

The world is full of “experts.” There are people everywhere who want to convince you of the wisdom of their opinion. Yet God says that it is not the one who declares his viewpoint the most loudly or vociferously who is the wisest, but the one who is vindicated over time.

Wisdom is not proven by argument or debate. Wisdom is proven over time. Some people adamantly proclaim that their opinion is best. Regardless of how convincingly these people defend their viewpoint, time is the best judge of their wisdom. The result of a practice proves its validity, not how loudly it is promoted. When you seek to obey what God has told you, you will sometimes meet resistance and criticism from others who disagree with the wisdom of your actions. Your immediate response may be the urge to vindicate yourself. However, if you wait patiently, time will reveal the wisdom of your actions far better than you could through argument.

Through the ages, the wisdom found in God’s Word has been tested and proven true. It is critical that you measure everything you hear against the Scriptures. Trends in psychology and philosophy come and go, but God’s Word is timeless. Whenever you share an opinion in counseling someone else, make sure that it comes from the Scripture and not merely from your best thinking. As long as you base your life choices on the Word of God, time will be your defender and will validate the wisdom of your choices. If, over time, you clearly see you are wrong, ask God’s forgiveness and seek a fresh word from God through the Scripture. Then obey that word and watch to see God confirm His wisdom in your life.
