Proverbs 8:8 I, wisdom, dwell together with prudence; I possess knowledge and discretion.
We can all look back on good or bad choices and criticise the path we took – we learn from the outcomes of things which happen around us... or at least we should be learning!
Wisdom is accepting the truth and changing our lives to follow that truth and to steer clear of the bad things in life.
Sometimes we have to make the choice before we find out what happens – then we need to follow wisdom so the outcome is the best we can hope for!
