Lady Wisdom

Who is she ? Is she familiar to you ? Actually , many of us have met her before. We probably couldn't recognize her because of the voices of other things bothering us. She is calling out , but do you hear her sweet , demure voice ?

Are we in the quest to seek her ? Many find but very few seek. She can only reveal herself more when we woo her. When we have set our hearts , and refocus our attention on her. Only then , she will be made known to her pursuers.

Wisdom like many spiritual gifts , is not something easily attainable unless you really want it , like how Solomon wanted it badly. And it was given. Of course, when you ask , you receive, but you have to act it out , practice it , polish it , establish it. Once you have it's foundation , only can God pour out more of His wisdom and make them known to you. New things , new insights and revelations.

Nevertheless , wisdom comes by through experiences. It needs to be practiced and tried. There will definitely be times in life where opportunities arises for us to apply the wisdom we have and that's how we know at what level we are practicing wisdom when it is concerned, though it's measures are very subjective.

However, our main guideline for wisdom is the Word of God. So, though subjective, it won't be very far-fetched. If you get what I mean.

We can distinguish a person who has wisdom from a person who has only knowledge. A person with only knowledge will be more vulnerable to pride. As he attains more head-knowledge , he becomes more critical in thinking which eventually leads to pride if not careful.

On the other hand, wisdom is just the opposite. Wisdom is when we translate our knowledge into action , when we apply teachings and morals , when we master the art of ' walking the talk'. Wisdom concerns our everyday lives , the way we act , the words we say and our thoughts. It is a life of integrity and morality.

Let us seek for Lady Wisdom!!
