There is only peace at God’s table.
No conflicts there arise.
Those who seek for righteousness
In meekness are made wise.
But if you have bitterness
And self-seeking in your heart
Do not pretend goodness.
Bid all sin depart.
The wisdom from above is pure.
It’s peaceable and gentle.
It’s willing to yield and full of mercy.
Showing good conduct is central.
Are you lacking in wisdom?
Ask the Lord above.
He will give you wisdom
And fill your heart with love.
“Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth. This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic. For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy. Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.”
James 3:13-18 NKJV
