Reply w dornth, Arizona 12/13/07 wisdom does not come from age or hair color, but is a gift from God for our obedience Reply Anonymous 12/13/07 I'm sorry but wisdom come not from God or anyone but ourselves - when will we start be responsible for our own bodies and souls? Reply E Archer, NYC 12/13/07 Ain't that the truth. (Blind obedience is not a sign of wisdom -- quite the contrary.) Reply warren, olathe 12/13/07 The wise are obedient to God. The foolish ignore or deny him. Reply Ken, Allyn, WA 12/13/07 Obedience with your eyes wide open is much preferable to blind obedience. Reply J Carlton, Calgary 12/13/07 Experience engenders wisdom. Whatever it may be..... Reply w dornth, Arizona 12/14/07 I know a lot of very smart people that have no wisdom. They constantly fill their minds with facts but no not how to apply the information. Wisdom then is the constructive use of information for the good of all mankind. When one is wise, they are strong, yet they are kind because they are sure of themselves. A quality seldom observed now. SaveOk2 SaveOk2 View CommentsClick to view or comment.
