Wisdom

Although life I have read about wisdom, read the book of Wisdom in the Scriptures and have to no avail gained wisdom. I have anguished over the lack of wisdom. I have been associated with educated men who had less wisdom than the little people did.
I find Proverbs suggests Wisdom is a person. “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom” (Psalms 111:10). “The Lord gives wisdom and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding” (Proverbs 2:6). “In Christ are hidden all the treasure of wisdom and knowledge” (Colossians 2:3). “Wisdom that comes from above [heaven] is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit [deeds], impartial and sincere” (James 3:17).
“We don’t receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take us or spare us.” ~~ Marcel Proust (1871-1922)
