There’s a difference between wisdom and knowledge. The world is full of educated fools.
One, Relationships. Wise people take care of their relationships at home and at work. Fools fight everywhere. Fools destroy their marriages. Fools destroy their jobs.
Two, Self-Control. Wise people control their appetites. Fools drink themselves silly. Fools eat with no limits. Their god is their stomach. Fools sleep with anyone and anything that is available.
Three, Learning. Wise people never graduate from learning. Fools know everything. They are unteachable. Fools have no interest in understanding; they only want to air their own opinions (Proverbs 18:2).
Four, Adaptability. Wise people adapt quickly to new realities. They know life is tough. When problems hit, they think about the solution on their feet. Fools are stressed by the slightest changes in their environment. If they lose a job or a loved one, they lose themselves… and expect others to solve their problems.
Five, God. Wise people obey God. Fools contend with their Creator. Fools say there’s no God (Psalm 14:1 & Psalm 53:1). Wise people make wise eternal choices. Fools think they can fool God.
In Matthew 7:24-28, Jesus compared a wise and a foolish builder. The wise built his house on rock. The foolish built his house on sand. Storms hit both houses. The house built on sand fell apart. Our foundations are revealed by storms. The only foundation that lasts is a life built on God’s Word.
