Gaining a Heart of Wisdom

Psalm 90

Wisdom. If I could bottle it, would I make a fortune? It’s what everyone knows they need. But it isn’t at the top of many people’s list. Most of us are more eager to pursue things that are exciting, interesting, or attention grabbing. Wisdom can seem like broccoli: good for you, but much less of a draw than ice cream. We ignore her as we walk past her in the streets.

It should, however, be at the top of our list. So how do we gain a heart of wisdom? That is the focus of Moses' prayer in Psalm 90. Wisdom leads us to life.
