THE GIFT OF WISDOM

THE GIFT OF WISDOM.
Knowledge is the fuel for wisdom. While a person with the gift of knowledge seeks answers through study and investigation, the person with the gift of wisdom is able to use the knowledge to understand a deeper meaning of given situations. These two gifts complement one another in special ways the other gifts do not. The balance of these gifts is important to the body, whereas too much knowledge without wisdom can create confusion and competing directions. On the other hand, too much wisdom without knowledge can lead to misunderstandings of guidance and failure to properly interpret the Holy Spirit’s Will. This is not to say that the Holy Spirit’s Will cannot be understood by an imbalance of the gifts, but it certainly will hinder the body’s abilities to do so.
