James 3
13Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. 14But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. 15Such "wisdom" does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil. 16For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.
17But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.

The only wisdom which I am prepared to concede in my case is "the fear of the Lord", which is the beginning of wisdom. I am still a beginner! But I am encouraged by the fact that: "a good understanding have all they who do thereafter"!

Amen.
I guess if I had to think this question through... I'd have to say my wisdom... I have none, I am human- prone to mistakes and at times wise in my own eyes which makes me lack knowledge and wisdom... Its hard but I'm trying, one day at a time and one step towards God and the pearly gates- He'll make 2 towards me!
God bless you- and be and keep safe on this journey through life because evils at every door, on every corner and pacing everyone and everybody's street. Evil doesn't care who you are, doesn't care where you've been and takes rich or poor.
The wisest thing I too do- is fear He who has created me!

I am not sure if I have any wisdom or not.
I give my honest opinion; and I am willing to allow history to determine if I had wisdom or not.
