Getting God's Wisdom

Understanding is a wellspring of life unto him that hath it: but the instruction of fools is folly. Proverbs 16:22

Wisdom is like a savings account: If you add to it consistently, then eventually you will have accumulated a great sum.. The secret to succes is consistency.
Do you see wisdom for youself and for your family? Then you must keep learning, and you must keep motivating them to do likewise. The ultimate source of wisdom, of course, is the Word of God. When you study God's Word and live according to His commandments, you will accumulate wisdom day by day. And finally, with God's help, you'll have enough wisdom to keep and enough left over to share.

"Most of us go through life praying a little, planing a lot, jockeying for position, hoping but never being quite certain of anything, and always secretly afraid that we will miss the way. This is a tragic waste of truth and never gives rest to the heart. There is a better way. It is to repudiate our own wisdom and take instead the infinite wisdom of God." - A.W. Tozer
