Thank you for joining us for our 7 day a week, 7 minutes of wisdom podcast. This is Day 31 of our Trek. It is hard to believe that it has been a month already since we launched Wisdom-Trek. It has been both challenging and exciting to create Wisdom-Trek and to know that the podcast has been downloaded nearly 8,000 times in the first 30 days. Thank you so much for your support and please keep promoting Wisdom-Trek so that we can all grow boldly where few have chosen to grow before. Our purpose each day is to gain wisdom and insight which will help us to create a living legacy.
Today we are recording our podcast from our studio at The Big House in Marietta, Ohio. We have had the privilege of observing fairly young twin fawns in our yard the past couple of days. The deer seem to become less afraid each year. These two beautiful fawns have stayed fairly close to the house bedding down in our yard. I was getting concerned that maybe something had happened to their mama, but towards dinner time, she came sauntering through the yard herself. After they nursed for a bit, the three of them headed into the small wooded area behind the house. We all need to take time and be thankful for the little joys of life.
As we come to the end of another very busy day, I am also thankful for all the experiences and opportunities that God has weaved into my life. Yes, it is overwhelming at times (okay, most of the time), but it is through the challenging times of daily life that we gain and grow in wisdom. Wisdom is obtained through years of proper thinking and experience. That is why today’s podcast is titled “Think and Grow Wise.”
As we continue our Trek, consider this: To become a wise person, you need to gain accurate, perceptive insights into human behavior and understand how this is integrated into everyday situations. You need to practice what Christ’s half-brother James wrote in his letter in Chapter 1 verses 19 and 20, “Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. Human anger does not produce the righteousness God desires.” You will need to be observers
