Wisdom is the most important thing, so acquire wisdom.—Prov. 4:7.

 

Doing what we know to be right brings rich blessings. Although wisdom is based on knowledge, it particularly has to do with the decisions we make rather than just the facts we understand. Even ants reveal wisdom. Ants demonstrate instinctive wisdom by preparing their food in the summer. (Prov. 30:24, 25) Christ, “the wisdom of God,” always does the things pleasing to the Father. (1 Cor. 1:24; John 8:29) God knows the difference between making the right choice and acting on that choice. And he rewards those who demonstrate humility with endurance and who practice what they know to be true. (Matt. 7:21-23) Therefore, work to preserve the spiritual environment in which genuine humility can flourish. Applying what we know to be true takes time and requires patience, but it is a mark of humility that leads to happiness now and forever. w18.09 7 ¶18

Good one today as always. The world's view of wisdom is someone of high position like a guru who sits on a mountain spouting forth wisdom and OTHERS acting on what he says. Wisdom though is really a doing word for it to be fully appreciated. I like this one very much. Good morning there Vernalee x
