So teach us to number our days that we may get
a heart of wisdom.
Psalm 90:12
What if each new day brought a new nugget of wisdom? In just the past year, 365 treasures would be ours. And counting the accumulation over 5, 10, 20 years … we would be wealthy in wisdom!
As women of God, wisdom is available to us if we are looking for it and asking for it, but we must be looking and asking at the right source. Scripture makes it clear: God is the source of wisdom!
If we could grab hold – and hold on – to the wisdom God reveals to us in His Word, how rich we would be!
Several years ago, my husband and I attended the wedding of a dear friend’s daughter. We were seated at a large round table with three other couples. My friend, the mother of the bride, referred to our group as the “fun table,” while the bride called ours the “table of wisdom.” One of the men quipped, “It just means it’s the table with the old people!”
And indeed, that statement carried some truth! If we have a teachable spirit – a willingness to listen and learn – God can use all events and circumstances of our lives to allow us to see and apply the wisdom He offers.

In this week’s Friday video, Laura’s friend Lesa Rissler was welcomed onto our channel to share insight from Proverbs 31:26. After listening to Lesa, you will see that having wisdom on our tongues must begin by having it in our hearts! We think you will particularly love a couple of sweet stories she shares about conversations with her daughter, Aubrey. Listen and be blessed!
