Without a connection to God through Christ and the Holy Spirit, there is a sense of powerlessness. With no deep, tangible faith there is no source of power that can heal relationships, heal the body, assure us of eternal life, or make miracles happen. A deep, tangible faith results in our having a guiding light in our lives, which produces wisdom. So many of the decisions we make everyday, even the decisions that seem insignificant, require wisdom. Wisdom is not something with which we are born.
Wisdom is acquired.
Our faith that produces in us a hunger to know about God and about how to live our life according to His guiding Hand produces in us a starting point for acquiring wisdom. Persons of faith should always want to do the right thing. We should always want to do what God wants from us. As we hunger and thirst to do the right and smart thing, we acquire wisdom. In addition, when we obey him, every path he guides us on is fragrant with his loving-kindness and his truth.
