-Wisdom

The situation today is:
Lots of knowledge, but little understanding.
Lots of means, but little meaning.
Lots of know-how, but little know-why.
Lots of sight, but little insight.

-Wisdom / Knowledge

'A man looking at the present in light of the future, and taking his whole being into account, may be contented with his lot; That is Christian contentment. But if a man has come to that point where he is so content that he says "I do not want to know any more, or do any more, or be any more," he is in a state in which he ought to be changed into a mummy.'

--Henry Ward Beecher
'The Bible was not given to increase our knowledge but to change our lives.'

--The Value of Wisdom

--BIBLE MEDITATION:
"How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!"
[Proverbs 16:16] ---

-DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
I was interested to note in the newspaper that several billion dollars was moved from one bank to another--7.5 billion dollars to be exact. And there to watch and protect was an army of one hundred policeman and guards--all with their machine guns, tear gas, and all forms of electronic communications--because, of course, everybody wants money, don't they? People would do anything to get their hands on that money.

I wonder, if they had had a truckload of wisdom going down the street, how many policemen do you think they would have needed to guard it?

-ACTION POINT:
It will be a great day in your life when you begin to seek after wisdom with the same intensity and commitment as you seek after gold.

--Adrian Rogers
