*After waiting for several years for the fruit of the womb without any success, a woman in desperation cried to God saying ” Oh Lord, give me a child, just one child, even if it is one without wisdom”.*
*The elders around turned to ask her a question thus -“what will end a child without wisdom?”*
*Permit me to say that most people see the place of WISDOM in human existence as SMALL, especially people of this generation, where the most gullible person in the community can hijack leadership just by deception, and by claiming to be who he is NOT.*
*The statement below places all known emphasis on the subject of wisdom without equivocation :*
*”Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting, get understanding”- Prov 4:7.*
*May I say that wisdom is the all important destiny changer any man should ask for.*
*If a man is determined to reach his goal and attain his life visions, then the role and place of wisdom must never be undermined or compromised.*
*Wisdom is the all – important friend of the successful, and the enemy to failures.*
*For a productive life, wisdom is a necessary companion a man needs.*
*For positive directions in the journey of life, wisdom is the crucial ally.*
*What then is wisdom, if you will permit me to ask?*
*”Wisdom is that element of personal character that enables one to distinguish the wise from the unwise”.*
*”It is the discretionary use of knowledge for the greatest good”.*
*”It is the ability to apply relevant knowledge in an insightful way, especially to different situations from which the knowledge was gained”.*
*”It is also the ability to make a decision based on the combination of knowledge, experience, intuition and understanding.”*
*”It is perhaps the only item that you need to get your strength and endowments to deliver results for you. The only thing that one should seek after with all passion and might”*.
*Wisdom will tell you when to keep your mouth shut and when……*
*To be concluded tomorrow, God willing.*
Top of the day to you 👍
