Wisdom is often misunderstood. Many people assume that wisdom is knowledge, but many have brains filled with knowledge yet remain unwise. Solomon understood this truth, and that's why we often see wisdom described in terms of action or lifestyle. After all, you can have all the book smarts in the world, but if the information you learn does not affect the way you live, then it is worthless.

When we meditate on God's Word, we will have biblical knowledge to live our lives with wisdom through the Holy Spirit. In life, we will make mistakes and do some foolish things, and yet, through the grace of God, we can get up, dust ourselves off, and continue seeking Christ. Over time, we can see a consistency in our lives that stems from our increased biblical wisdom. We won't be perfect, but we will be able to celebrate God's ability to bring us from point A to point B through the power of His Word and Spirit.

Life Lesson: A wise person is not considered wise because of a good moment but because of the consistency in lifestyle choices.

Dear God,
Thank You for Your Word. Help me not only grow in knowledge of Your Word but live in wisdom by applying what I know. Give me a heart for You and a love for others.
In Jesus' name. Amen.
