Ask for wisdom!

 James 1:5

If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.

Proverbs 3:13-14 tells us that wisdom is better that silver and gold, which is why we need it. The verse above, encourages us that if we lack wisdom, let us ask for it from our Heavenly Father, who is generous and willing to provide, will give us. We also see this at play with king Solomon, whom God asked what he wants, and he said he wants wisdom (1 King 3:5-14). This very wisdom is the one that made him so successful, famous and rich, that the bible tells us that he was the richest king of Israel and he had it all! This shows that all it takes, is to ask for wisdom through which God will guide you to make right decisions and take fruitful actions. 

When you think about it, one may have many degrees from studying, but if they don't have wisdom, that education can be to some degree useless, as it may end up gathering dust and not useful for anyone. But that with the combination of wisdom from God, that person can change the world! So, may this be a lesson for us, and let us be direct and intentional when we pray and ask God. Let us ask for that which will be in His will for us and that it will benefit us as well. God will not withhold anything from you, if He sees fit. He is kind, generous, loving, He will grant your wishes that are sincere.
