The Ways Of Wisdom...

We live in a place and time where most people assume the path to wisdom is through teaching. It is interesting to me how scripture seems to perceive it differently.

"All who obey His commandments will grow in wisdom." ~Psalm 111:10

Wisdom is the result of following the leadership and counsel of our Lord. While scripture clearly values teaching as perhaps a way to gain knowledge, it is not the same thing as gaining wisdom. Wisdom is deeper! Wisdom is more than the by-product of our reasoning. Wisdom is the actual thoughts of God literally pouring into us and through us into our situations. That wonderful ability is only learned by putting our feet in the footsteps of Christ, day after day, week after week, month after month, and year after year. In this way we observe the ways of our Lord over and over again. In this manner of walking we learn THE WAYS OF WISDOM! ~verlon
