When we operate with wisdom, we use discretion and exercise our knowledge. We can either avoid evils or attempt good. Prudence is wisdom applied in practice. "Knowledge consists of knowing that a tomato is a fruit, and wisdom consists of not putting it in a fruit salad." (Miles Kington) When we use wisdom, we are living every moment as if we are physically before God. As Christians, we have confidence in knowing that wisdom is God-given. When we gain wisdom, we are gaining His thoughts. If we rely on our knowledge alone, we have misplaced our trust in ourselves and are operating out of outright arrogance. Today it seems, we have the most information available to us at this point in history, and ironically, the least amount of wisdom. We want wisdom for ourselves and our children. Listen to see how you can gain wisdom from God.
