10. Monday Meditations: Wise

Happy Monday Meditations! The attribute of God that we’ll be meditating on today will be his Wisdom. Fear God. You can have knowledge without wisdom, but not wisdom without knowledge.

Gold is another's, wisdom is our own; gold is for the body and time, wisdom for the soul and eternity. The treasures of wisdom are hidden not from us, but for u...
