The wise find wisdom everywhere. The fool think that he has to make big efforts to achieve it. If you show contempt for justice, you will learn nothing but wrong things in life. You cannot be a wise thief, or a wise criminal, or a wise cheater. There is nothing wise of being a thief, or criminal or cheater.
Being wise doesn’t result of studying, traveling, or knowing people. It is your attitude toward God that has to change. When you respect God and His justice, every new experience will teach you something and you will grow in wisdom.
The wicked take bribes under the table;
they show nothing but contempt for justice.
24 The perceptive find wisdom in their own front yard;
fools look for it everywhere but right here.
25 A surly, stupid child is sheer pain to a father,
a bitter pill for a mother to swallow.
26 It’s wrong to penalize good behavior,
or make good citizens pay for the crimes of others.
27 The one who knows much says little;
an understanding person remains calm.
28 Even dunces who keep quiet are thought to be wise;
as long as they keep their mouths shut, they’re smart.
(Prov.17:23-28 MSG)
Prayer: I want to thank You God for Your wisdom. Let me to respect Your justice always and be aware of injustices that You expect me to be against them. Open my heart to acquire wisdom wherever I go.
