Friday's foresight
Yesterday we were talking about the tongue, and when it is okay to tell someone something about somebody else, for their protection. In the next few verses in James after the taming of the tongue it talks about wisdom and understanding and that the "...wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure, then peace loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy, and good fruit, impartial and sincere." Then it concluses that "peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness." Thank God for grace, because after looking at the list, I stopped after pure. I think that even in the wisdom that God has given us, we will know in our spirit when what we are saying is for someones elses protection or merely gossip.
