It is your duty to God to run your life on intelligent lines. God gives us all as much intelligence as we can possibly need, but, unfortunately, in most cases we use very little of it.
Ask yourself today if you are really conducting your life intelligently. Are you eating and drinking intelligently? Do you select your reading intelligently? Do you spend your money intelligently? Do you consider intelligently the things that you hear, or do you just accept them uncritically? Do you exercise intelligence in carrying out your daily work? Do you seek to approach each new problem with intelligence instead or mere emotions?
Have you intelligent plans for the future? Do you know what you would really like to do or to be, and if not wouldn’t it be only intelligent to go to work and find out and then draw up an intelligent plan for gaining your desire?
The world needs more intelligence. There is plenty of will, but because people will not use enough intelligence, mankind everywhere is in difficulties. Your intelligence is the light of God in your soul.
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus (Philippians 2:5)
Our intelligence is God’s consciousness working through us.But we must exercise and direct our intelligence or we become an obstacle to God’s will. By the way, would God give us the intelligence to question our faith if he were not supremely confident that our faith would be affirmed?
Think intelligently, question intelligently and live in peace with the conclusions. It is God’s way for us.to find our way.
Finding God’s way,
