Presence in Pain
1. What is one thing your body or longings might be speaking to you about a pain or desire
you can be present to?
2. Explore the prayer practice this week of simply bringing the circumstances of the day to
God OR paying attention to your consolation and desolation each day.
3. Practice presence this week with a person in your life who is suffering. Let them know
you are thinking of them and/or take time to listen/validate/comfort without answers.
Where Can Wisdom Be Found?
“We live in a world drowning in information but starving for wisdom.” - E.O. Wilson.
E.O. Wilson penned these words back in 1998 and with each passing year they’ve become more relevant to our lives. Indeed,
our lives are saturated with data and information but void of understanding, and the truth is that we need wisdom, not
more knowledge. Which is why I love Job’s question in Job 28:12, “Where can wisdom be found?” Wisdom isn’t quick, it’s
experiential. Wisdom takes time and patience and staying engaged. I love this about Job’s story. He stays in it. And so today
we’re invited to explore this question posed by Job and in doing so, perhaps come to a greater understanding of what God is
up to in our lives.
I.Wisdom is absolutely important. (v. 9-12)
II. Wisdom is virtually unattainable. (v. 13-27)
III. Wisdom can nonetheless be cultivated. (v. 28)
