#LOOKWISELY!
Sequel to our last week's deliberation titled #LOOk we'll consider how to look wisely. "It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see." It means some are looking but not seeing. Seeing is what makes looking potent. Now, God never told Abraham, "as far as your eyes can look..." what God said was "as far as your eyes can see." Wise Look guarantees sight or seeing.
HOW TO LOOK WISELY:
1. Don't look far
Haba, but every motivational speaker encourages us to look far. Well, it seems I am saying otherwise but my otherwise is supported by Jesus when He said. "Take no thought of tomorrow..." Tomorrow is not a good place to look. Far is not the best way to look.
The quest to see tomorrow has set many people on the wrong path. Some have visited diviners, sooth-sayers, star-gazers and palm-reader to find out
* How long will I live?
* Will I marry and who is the man or woman?
* Will I be rich or poor?
* Will I come back from the journey or not?
The question is, "the person you are consulting, is s/he sure of his or her own tomorrow?" Why do we consult extremely fearful people to help us deal with our fears?
James 4: 13,14 says "Come now, you who say, today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, make a profit" (and generally enjoy life: emphasis 'mine') whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow..."
Yesterday is gone, today is a gift while tomorrow is not certain. The best day of your life is today. Today is that tomorrow you talked about yesterday. Tomorrow will still be today when you arrive at it. Make wise use of your today! Don't waste it in your quest for what is not certain. You can't secure tomorrow by looking at tomorrow. If you must secure tomorrow there is a place to look and I will show you subsequently.
