Proverbs 4:7 (King James Version)

Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

Have you ever seen the movie "Get Smarts"? These two guys in the movie were geniuses; but they lacked understanding. As smart as they were, they were also, unsocial and lacked understanding. They could tell you how something came together, but didn't have the understanding on why they did what they did. Wisdom gives you the answer, but understanding gets the job done. 

Many times in our life it's the underlying issues of life that cause us to stop moving forward in our walk with Christ. Jesus knew that with wisdom, you had to have an understanding heart. A heart that is teachable, pliable, and available. 

Galatians 5:6 talks about making a careful exploration of yourself. We are to make a careful exploration of ourselves. Not to compare yourself to someone else. Don't base your success on the success rate of someone else. You have a specific race to run and only you can fulfill it. 

God Bless,
