Gaining a Heart of Wisdom

So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. (Psa 90:12)

The lack of wisdom causes us to make wrong decisions or improper choices which will reap negative consequences. Wisdom may not equate to intelligence or knowledge; foolishness can be a result of knowing what is right but choosing to ignore it for lack of better judgment.

There have been many who misbehaved and acted foolishly thinking that they are immortal. Mortality should make us sober. To know that we are personally accountable for our actions should keep us on the right path. It is not just that, to stay on the right path must include faith that Jesus will lead us and if necessary carry us through. The Good Shepherd will speak to our spirit and heart to keep ourselves, but if we choose to listen selectively that’s where folly steps in.
