Do you consider yourself a wise or foolish person? Maybe neither label is appropriate. I have done many wise things in my life so I possess a degree of wisdom. But I have also done my share of foolish things. Does that disqualify me for the description of a wise man?
I believe wisdom comes with age and experience. Hopefully as I’ve grown older I have grown wiser and less foolish. That is part of the natural maturation process. It is certainly possible to seek wisdom through education and mentorship.
God tells us to ask for wisdom. He is the giver of all things. The one thing Solomon asked for from God when he became king was wisdom. Seek God in all things and ask Him for wisdom.
James 1:5 (NLT) - “If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking.”
