Hard Knocks and Wisdom

There are book smarts, street smarts, and then there is wisdom… 


Most of us can claim to be graduates of the School of Hard Knocks. 


Experience teaches us much and we learn from our mistakes and even from our victories. 


Some of us can even claim advanced degrees from our School of Hard Knocks, but the ones I have learned the most from are the students of God’s Word. 


Some have their undergraduate degrees from our Alma Mater, but ultimately their trust in the Lord and thirst for His Word gives them the wisdom we all naturally seek. 


Who and where are you gaining your wisdom?..


Check your experience…


“Our ideas did not work. But the God idea did.” Big Book pg. 50 

Lord fill us with Your wisdom that comes from Your Spirit and Word, AMEN. 

“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously” James 1:5 


Have a blessed day Y’all!
