Because of Him

1 Corinthians 1:30 "It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God--that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. "

      Good Morning, Lord.  Thank You that I can have God's wisdom.  Our world views wisdom as knowledge.  I have come across some very learned folks who are very foolish because they have rejected You.  We do need knowledge, but I'll take Your wisdom over it any day.  Most of the world's knowledge is about temporal things because they have no real idea of eternity.  Your wisdom is about eternal things: righteousness, holiness and redemption.
      Hallelujah that You would want to share these things with me!  I do not want to be a Christ Follower who knows that I have Your righteousness  positionally, and Your redemption because of Your work on the cross for me paying my sin debt, and then live an unholy life.  I long to be holy as You are holy.  Lord, convict me of sin quickly so I may confess and repent.  Lord, lead me into Your holiness!
