I listened to a meditation today that really struck a chord with me. The focus of the reflection was if and/or how we seek wisdom. The first question was are we trying to seek wisdom at all in our lives, or are we just happy to go about our way doing the easy things without being challenged? The next idea was if we are seeking wisdom, where are we looking? It is so easy to get information on the Internet now, but you have to do even more research to verify if what you found is actually true or not. Jeff Cavins, who did the reflection, stated that Google processes 14 billion searches a day. So, naturally I Googled it. AI said there were 8 billion a day. Another source said 16 billion. Those are quite different numbers. Evidently Google claims that they process over 5 trillion in a year, and if you do the math from that, it comes to just under 14 billion a day. In any case, the last statement made in the meditation was, “What if we, as a planet, asked Jesus for wisdom 14 billion times a day? What a world that would be.” Indeed. I personally felt convicted that I should be spending more time seeking God’s wisdom to help me walk on His good path.
I Found God today reminded that true wisdom comes from Him.
