Wisdom
is not what’s
in your head
-
and it’s
not what’s
in your heart.
Wisdom is
only what’s
in both your
head and
your heart,
-
and then
has been
tested
by
ACTION!

Love is patient and kind, but it knows that permissively letting the child, wife, employee, or even our own body do-its-own-thing leads to destruction. Love isn’t arrogant or proud of its own accomplishments. However, standing for God’s vision and direction will be misunderstood as being inflexible, high-handed, or narrow-minded. Love does not seek its own way, but plans the eternal good of all involved, so it can’t always allow the loved one to have his/her own way either. Love is happy with truth, so it knows it is not a kindness to enable or tolerate sin and wrong. Love may carry a burden, but it must not go down into destruction with the loved one. Love must hope and endure in the face of the interminable; it cannot go the easy route, there is always a cost to do things in God’s Parent-Husband patient way.
Pastors, if you don’t teach the balance, you are neutering your flock.
