qqqqq^ THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM qqqqq 53
When wisdom is working in you, your life will
be full of peace. You won’t ever have to worry
about lack, want, sickness, disease, or anything
contrary to the good life. The Hebrew word
translated “peace” is “shalom.” Shalom doesn’t
just depict quietness and tranquility or an
environment where no one is disturbing you. More
importantly, shalom means peace with prosperity;
peace with everything going on perfectly and
under your control.
Shalom is a state of completeness, wholeness,
total well-being, health and prosperity that
produces rest. Thus, shalom is the peace of God
that gives prosperity, health, strength, and
advantage.
When you have such peace, you’ll sleep like
a baby. You won’t sleep fitfully and you won’t
need pills to knock you off to sleep every night.
When I sleep, I sleep well! When I laugh, I laugh
heartily, not like someone who’s trying to. I live a
tremendous life because of the peace that wisdom
brings.
