Me: I think you need to have wisdom in where you walk Prodigal.
Prodigal: I know that is a warning and I should follow it.
Me: Yes, we should listen to warnings.
This is from the book Spiritual Leadership by J. Oswald Sanders
If knowledge is the accumulation of facts, and intelligence the development of reason, wisdom is heavenly discernment. It is insight into the heart of things. Wisdom involves knowing God and the subtleties of the human heart. More than knowledge, it is the right application of knowledge in moral and spiritual matters, in handling dilemmas, in negotiating complex relationships. “Wisdom is nine-tenths a matter of being wise in time,” said Theodore Roosevelt. Most of us are “too often wise after the event.”
Don’t regret afterward, but following wisdom before hand. Take some quiet time and make sure that this is from God. In the quiet time He will give you a peace and stillness and then you know that this is from Him. In all ways seek His path and He will direct you!
Then Peter said unto them, Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Acts 2:38
