This is a sketch of King Solomon, by Rembrant.
Solomon asked God for wisdom and God gave it
to him, however later in life, he was tempted away
from God by his idolatrous wives. A good lesson
for us all. If the wisest man who ever lived could
lose his wisdom, so could we!
WISDOM
Wisdom:
Does not come with age.
A head full of gray hair,
Does not make one a sage.
Wisdom:
The kind that's pure and true
Is a gift form God,
That He will bestow on you.
Wisdom:
And knowledge that this world seeks,
Is foolishness with God...
So the Good Book speaks.
We may know a lot of facts,
Have many scholarly abilities,
But the wisdom that comes from God
Comes with humility.
