In a quest for Wisdom . . .


In the book of Proverbs we are told that wisdom is like a woman.

Proverbs 1:20 - 22


Wisdom calls aloud in the street, she raises her voice in the public squares; at the head of the noisy streets she cries out, in the gateways of the city she makes her speech: "How long will you simple ones love your simple ways? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge?


It is amazing to know that wisdom is only a request or an answer away.

James 1:5


If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.


This is also wonderful. To ask God for wisdom, and seek His counsel for understanding is tremendous. Have you ever lacked the ability to make a clear choice between two things. Ask god for Wisdom. Seek wisdom as a person, as someone to know. I know it seems weird, but Proverbs tells us to Seek Wisdom with all we have. Here you go . . .


Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding.


I want to know more about this book of Proverbs, this book of wisdom. I am seeking wisdom today. I encourage you to see Wisdom as well. I am just a simple man looking for understanding. My simple definition of wisdom is the ability to discern between what is right and wrong, or between what is good or bad, or better yet what is best. Have a wonderful day. Peace
