Great endurance and PATIENCE” Colossians 1:11

Will we acquire wisdom?
HOW will we use our
Wisdom in the EXPERIENCES
Of our life?


It takes time
For us to UNDERSTAND
What God wants us to see
Through the experiences
Of our life


It takes patience
To acquire wisdom
IT TAKES TIME

Through life's maturing


But MOST of all
It takes
The TEACHING OF GOD


In Jesus' name and in the name of the LORD=THE FATHER OF WISDOM
