Proverbs 2: 5-13

5 Get wisdom; develop good judgment. Don’t forget my words or turn away from them. 6 Don’t turn your back on wisdom, for she will protect you. Love her, and she will guard you. 7 Getting wisdom is the wisest thing you can do! And whatever else you do, develop good judgment. 8 If you prize wisdom, she will make you great. Embrace her, and she will honor you. 9 She will place a lovely wreath on your head; she will present you with a beautiful crown.”
10 My child, listen to me and do as I say, and you will have a long, good life. 11 I will teach you wisdom’s ways and lead you in straight paths. 12 When you walk, you won’t be held back; when you run, you won’t stumble. 13 Take hold of my instructions; don’t let them go. Guard them, for they are the key to life.

someone said today that wisdom is using the experiences that we learn through our life and the lives of those around us to make the right choices...

for me.. I don't think wisdom is really about life experiences... at least not the physical ones..
in the past.. everything I did was based on what I learned from hard life experiences.. and it made me hard hearted... and mean.. and selfish..

but now.. I use God's will and God's love to direct my paths.. and it may not look like I want it to.. it may not work out to make me overly happy.. but it still will work out to be the right thing..

so I don't think wisdom has anything to do with life... I think it has all to do with God and the leading and promptings of God.. I think it is about doing the God thing even when it doesn't seem like the right thing... I think it is about having faith and purpose and putting God first in our lives.. and keeping Him there... and allowing all the things of this earth... all the desires of this flesh.. to just fall away.. and trust that in His time.. He will satisfy not only our needs.. but our desires too...
