At the heart of Christianity, the center of everything distinctly Christian, is Christ crucified for our sin and resurrected as our Lord. There is nothing more paramount to Christianity than Christ, and nothing more important to the Christian than striving for maturity and wisdom in His name. It is, in a sense, our utmost passion and our singular goal: to glorify God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Because of this reality, we should develop a daily practice of seeking after His wisdom, praising His holy name, and confirming our faith with action. All of this occurs under the tutelage of advisors, spiritual leaders who we trust to point us in the right directions and kep us accountable to the truth of the Gospel of Christ. That is a good deal of what this verse is about and we should heed its place in our own lives as we press on to be a people of obedience and faith.
