WISDOM
Wisdom is more valuable than gold or silver
It promises long life, honor, and riches
“Nothing you desire can compare with her”
Her ways are pleasant, Her ways are precious
What are the greatest riches in life?
Understanding value, understanding truth
Peace-loving, purifying, and avoiding strife
That is the path that I want to choose
The Bible tells the story of Solomon
He was given a choice, he just had to ask
Solomon knew what mattered was wisdom
How did he know what he had to ask?
Wisdom will show me what really matters
My life without her would have no vision
So many choices, I need some answers
Help me. O Lord, my life needs wisdom
I need to reflect, what do I treasure
The Kingdom of heaven, or this world full of pleasure?

COMMENT ON WISDOM
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of
wisdom. True wisdom is found in
obedience to God.
Wisdom means having the knowledge
and understanding to recognize the right
course of action and having the will and
courage to follow it.
Wisdom is a gift from God. God says that
if we lack wisdom we should ask Him.
Why do I need wisdom?
To use my knowledge, to glorify Him.
In this journey I have found that
Wisdom is the application of knowledge.
Knowledge is getting to know God.
I have found in my life that I had to read
the Bible, experience Him, then came faith,
then wisdom.
If I take the first step and seek Him, that
to me is the real beginning of wisdom.
Knowing God is what really
matters—that is wisdom.
Wherever your treasure is will decide whether
you have wisdom.
Proverbs 3:13-15
Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and one
who get understanding for the gain, from her is
better than gain from silver and her profit better
than gold. She is more precious than jewels,
and nothing you can desire can compare with her.
You do great writing, wonderful service to Jesus Chrsit and some meaningful thoughts for BSF studies. Several times you have critiqued BSF for repeating questions; don’t waste your talent. You also mentioned that people have said bad things about you. As a USAF, BSME MBA United Airline Retired airline pilot people always say nasty things about anything I do. As a Christian, Saddleback Church, I always get garbage from atheist, Mormons, Unitarian and Jewish neighbors. Keep up your good writing; I love to compare your thoughts and answers with mine. I have been a DL, Leader since 1995 and enjoy your work. Stay strong, the Holy Spirit is with you! God bless America, In God we trust. No one else cares 🙂 Col John Kaylor
