Wisdom isn’t dependent on your level of knowledge. Wisdom is using the knowledge you have to its fullest extent.
I have a friend who is my example of the American Dream. He’s well in his 70’s now, owner of over 50 banks, 5 corporations, and his worth is in the billions. One time he said to me, rather sheepishly, “I don’t really know how much money I have, but God has given it to me to bless others.”
The amazing thing to me, and the lesson I’m hoping to learn is that he didn’t operate on tons of knowledge to get him where he is today. He relied on hard work, wisdom and vision. His story starts out as a young man who cut wood and sold it to make a living. But he saw possibilities in what he did know, was wise in pursuing his vision, and along the way picked up the knowledge he needs today to manage his business empire.
What books haven’t you written? What calls need to be made? What is it that you haven’t pursued? (Yes, I have my list!) We serve the God of all wisdom. Seek him to guide you.

Oh, to use that money to bless others! What inspiration that is, and not unexpected coming from a Christian heart. Yes, I’ve written the books, and have recently realized that they were only propelled by God and for His glory. Pastor Mike, my blog next Friday will explain how folks who want to spread God’s Word will have the opportunity to do so. I do hope you will participate!
Blessings to you!
