Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Perseguimos muchas cosas, pero una sola cosa nos trae la sabiduría. Pablo recordó a los Atenienses que Dios nos formó para buscarlo y encontrarlo (Hechos 17). La sabiduría de Proverbios nos guía a "conocer" a Dios y tener una relación profunda y de reverencia hacia Él como fuente de sabiduría. Un entendimiento de las prioridades, necesidades, propósitos, metas, problemas, que solo puede ocurrir cuando primero se reconocer quien es el Señor y lo importante que es conocerle diariamente.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
We pursue so many things, but only one pursuit brings true wisdom: a reverent awe and appropriate respect for the holiness and greatness of God. The apostle Paul reminded the Athenians, who always wanted to appear wise, that God made us to seek him, find him, and discover that true wisdom is in him (Acts 17:24-27). The wisdom of Proverbs keeps leading us back to knowing God and having deep, reverent awe of him. This is where wisdom begins! This is where true understanding finds its source. We can only understand life's priorities, purposes, goals, and directions when we recognize who the Lord is, walk with him in our day-to-day lives, and live before him with reverence and awe at his greatness and his grace!
Mi oración
Santo, majestuoso, justo y eterno Dios, confieso que te conozco menos de lo que me conoces a mí. Sin embargo tu fidelidad en mi vida, tu poder demostrado en la historia, tu gracia que compartiste con tantos en la cruz de Cristo y tu promesa de llevarme a tu hogar algún día, todos me sostienen. Quiero conocerte para que mi vida se pierda en tu voluntad, no para mi gloria o ganancia, sino para tu gloria. Pido que te hagas presente hoy en lo que hago. En el nombre de Jesús lo pido, Amén.
My Prayer...
Holy, majestic, righteous, and eternal God, we confess that we know you so much less than you know us. That also means we have far less wisdom than you do! Still, your faithfulness to us, your power displayed in history, your grace shared with us through the cross of Christ, and your promises to bring us home to you sustain us. We want to know you better. We want to honor you more, so that our lives can be caught up in your will and wisdom — not for our glory or gain, but for your praise. We ask that you make yourself known to us as we reverently approach you with thanksgiving for who you are, what you have done, and what you will do in the future with us. In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
