HE GIVES WISDOM TO THE WISE

Seeking wisdom sadly is not innate in Man;

He does not seek God’s Will to comprehend.

He is easily satisfied with simple things of life;

Even though his existence may be full of strife.

 

Seeking basic wisdom and finding it is the first test;

The Lord will reveal deep truth only to those who quest.

He will never give that which is holy to dogs;

Nor will pearls be appreciated by lowly hogs.

 

The wise will be given deeper wisdom that brings gladness;

Understanding the deep things of the Kingdom is blessedness.

The search for wisdom must be accompanied by prayer;

Revelation from God will never be given to those who don’t care.

 

How wonderful it is to have God reveal His plans;

This is how He honours the truly wise man.

The wise become wiser as God further reveals;

Thank God that He does not desire to conceal.
