Wisdom From the Source

We're not wise by what we know, we're wise by what we do with what we know. - Anon

The ark was built not because Noah had the plans, but because Noah acted on the plans. Amen!

We have names for them. The savvy investor, smart shopper, shrewd businessperson, etc. A few of them may have come from a family of means, but many of them were just like you and I - common folk. The fact is they took what they knew and put it into practice repeatedly, refined it, and made themselves even better. Wisdom is the proper use of knowledge or learning, and it is equally attainable by all, no matter the setting or environment. And the best place to start acquiring wisdom is at the feet of Almighty God...."the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom!" You may not become materially rich but you will have a tie-in to the One who is the source of all good things. And anyone who accumulates God's blessings is far richer in this life and the life to come. Sign me up!

Until tomorrow...
