Godly Wisdom Is Life

Godly Wisdom Is Life

The ingredients that make up wisdom are deep understanding, insight, knowledge, discernment, and good judgment. From the time we are very young we unknowingly gain wisdom. For example, we learn to tie our shoes when we put them on, so that we don't trip over the laces, we learn to have good dental hygiene so that cavities can be prevented, we learn to eat healthy so we can grow stronger. Wisdom comes with maturity, life experience, and reflection as we grow. The older we become is the wiser we are expected to be.

God is a God of wisdom. Proverbs 8:22-23 tells us that long before the earth was formed and even at the beginning of creation, wisdom was already here. He is the only wise God and there is none above His infinite wisdom. It's Gods will for his people to have godly wisdom and to wear it everywhere we go Proverbs 3:3, because it leads to the path of life Proverbs 4:11, it can preserve us and set us up for great success. Proverbs 4:6.
