Earlier in James he told us if we need wisdom to ask God (1:5). Now in Chapter 3 vs 13 he says if we have done that and received wisdom from God we need to prove it by living an honorable, humble life. What he’s saying is that godly wisdom is different from human wisdom. If we are tuned in to the Holy Spirit we won’t be proud and boastful. We won’t be selfish or jealous. We’ll use the knowledge and information God gives us to help others and to point people to Christ.
In vs 17 James points out some of the attributes of godly wisdom. First of all it’s pure—it doesn’t have any evil motives. Secondly, godly wisdom is gentle and peace loving. We should use the wisdom God gives us to bring people together and to solve problems, not to create division.
As he said earlier, godly wisdom doesn’t show favoritism and it is merciful.
So what does that look like in everyday life? Godly wisdom is more than just being smart. It’s more than just having the answers to problems. Godly wisdom is the ability to analyze situations and give helpful and blessed solutions. Solutions that benefit everyone and not just ourselves. James says if we can do that and be peacemakers we will reap many benefits from the Lord.

Strong. This guy is speaking the WORD from the HEART with CONVICTION.
“The word says who Jesus is, He’s knocking on the door, all you gotta do is get up.”
This is a powerful story told by Saints linebacker @demario__davis. A must watch!

In the film Chariots of Fire, there is a significant scene when Eric Liddell takes his sister Jennie for a walk in the hills of Scotland to explain his commitment to training for the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris. He tells her, “I’ve decided—I’m going back to China. The missionary service accepted me.” Jennie rejoices to hear this, since she fears her brother’s calling to be a missionary is being threatened by his interest in running.
However, Eric goes on to say, “But I’ve got a lot of running to do first. Jennie—Jennie, you’ve got to understand. I believe that God made me for a purpose—for China. But He also made me fast! And when I run, I feel His pleasure. To give it up would be to hold Him in contempt. You were right. It’s not just fun. To win is to honor Him.”
Liddell was a man of focus and passion because he pursued a growing sense of God’s purpose for his life. “When I run, I feel His pleasure”—what do you do that makes you feel God’s pleasure? Frederick Buechner put it this way in Wishful Thinking: A Theological ABC: “The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.” As you become a person of calling and purpose, you come to realize that God’s good pleasure is also your good pleasure. Seek satisfaction apart from Him, and you will never find it; seek to please Him first, and you discover that satisfaction is a byproduct of the pursuit of God.
