wisdom shown

So have you ever met someone who is so wise, and well learned that you can hardly have a conversation with them? Those people who use words and terminology that are the same reason you hate talking to your doctor? I know a lot of them, and many of them are wise and learned in the scriptures. THey are so scripturally wise that they can talk about any subject, share scripture references and make it sound really good. Usually, however, these people don't put much of it into practice. They tell you how it should be, they even give you advice, but when you watch them you see very little action behind it. ANd when they do act upon it, they seek your approval in doing so, the same approval they seek in sharing their wisdom and knowledge with you.
James 3:13 Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.
So having read this verse, where does humility come from? From wisdom and how do you exemplify humility and wisdom, by humbly putting them into practice.
It's the people who do things every day for others without thinking about it, without drawing any attention to themselves for it, and without needing anyone's approval. They just get up in the morning and wisely, and humbly automatically share whatever resource they can with others. Maybe they sit in a hospital room with someone who is sick, that isn't a big attention getting action but it makes a huge difference to those who are sick and their families. Maybe they visit a shut-in, or go to a nursing home, or maybe they call people who haven't been at church in a while and offer to pray with them. Whatever the case is, they do it for God and God alone, and not for the approval of anyone on earth.
That is what true humility and wisdom is about, seeking GOd with all you have and seeking to bring glory to Him and Him alone.
Thanks for reading and have a great day!
