“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.”
—James 1:5, ESV
It’s easy to seek counsel through social media, the internet, your family and friends—but how do you decipher truth from deception in this sea of opinions?
On the final installment of her Fearless podcast miniseries called “The Lies of I’s,” Cissie Graham Lynch speaks about the lie of “worldly wisdom.”
“So much of the wisdom we seek from the world is all centered around ‘I’: How can I improve myself? … How can I put myself first?” Cissie explained.
When we look to the world for answers, we are often encouraged to focus on ourselves, rather than on Jesus Christ, she added.
So how do we spot true wisdom?
“You first ask God,” Cissie said. “We have to be reading His Scripture, reading His Word, so we can … recognize His voice when He speaks to us.”
