The OneSample

What comes to mind when you think of wisdom? For me, so many times when I think of being wise or having wisdom, I think of this character on a tall chair with a long beard with power saying, “This is what’s wise.” When that image comes to mind, wisdom seems like such an abstract or confusing thing. I think to myself I could never have that type of wisdom because I am not at that level. 

The reality is that God wants to give us wisdom right where we are. God wants us to be wise, and we can ask for and seek wisdom as we read the Bible and pursue God. The fantastic thing is that God wants a relationship with us, and we can grow in understanding as we seek all God wants to show us and ask for sound judgment and knowledge. God is the ultimate source of wisdom.

Today, if you face a difficult decision or need wisdom, ask God and trust He will show you the way.
