The necessity for reflection


Only the wise reflects!
Since reflection is not natural, the normal canal side of us would choose to flow with the events of life and not make sense out of them. We allow days to flow through our lives only to be awaken occasionally by crisis, supernatural encounters, etc.
The bible called us to live life wisely. Wisdom, as defined in scripture, refers to the art of living well under the hand of God. The Fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. Why? Fear of God helps us to be conscious of God regularly. Reflection, or biblical reflection, calls us to be conscious of God. Reflecting on daily moments by seeking out God's agenda and lesson for us, helps us to be conscious of God. Thus making one wise.
Fools, on the other hand, said in their own hearts there is no God. They are not stupid people. They are just people who sincerely live lives without any consciousness of God. They may even profess with their mouths that there is God but their lives are lived without such consciousness. Often it is not what we say but how we live in private that truly reflect who we are.
SO are you wise or fool? Reflect about this!
