jesus on wisdom

a couple thoughts about wisdom
according to jesus ..

- be careful how reckless we are in judging others; we will one day be held to the same standard we used .. ' back at ya ' ; that's a sobering thought
or, be wise in the use of what we know, being wary of judging others at all

- the wisdom we have should be used; it is unwise to not use it
if we don't it will be taken from us

wisdom then, is to be displayed for its light, not hidden, like under the bed
it is critical to share it
the imprudence of not doing so will lead to losing what of it we had

additionally, when we share it more is given
we gain wisdom as we share the wisdom we are given
colloquially, it's a win/win situation

.. least, that's what came out of our church community discussion tonight, kinda
and it smacks of wisdom to me

matthew 5.14-16, and Mark 4. 21-25
