We're all familiar with people who have high IQ’s but no common sense. The Bible says, “If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all…, and it will be given to him.”
It’s important to understand that wisdom is not knowledge or intelligence. The wisdom being talked about here is the ability to apply knowledge and intelligence and to make decisions in the best possible way – it’s understanding how God would make the same decision if he were in my situation.
We face lots of dilemmas where we don’t have the wisdom that we would like to have; but all we need to do is to ask God! Imagine what a difference it would make in all of our lives if we would always ask for wisdom and then act as God would in our situation.
