We think the more knowledge and experience we gain in the world the more it will help us and the more fulfilled we will be. Like the verse above says, often when we gain only worldly knowledge our happiness doesn\u2019t increase, if anything sorrow increases. When we put our purpose on earthly wisdom we realize that we will never actually achieve fulfillment in it. The only way to achieve actual fulfillment is living for Christ and through Godly knowledge is where true happiness, true joy comes from. The things that are the most fulfilling, the things that will stick with us for years, is the time spent with family and friends, and the time spent helping others and pursuing God. The awesome part about our faith in God is it can be pursued at any level; it is simple enough for a young child to comprehend yet if you want to really get into the weeds on Biblical wisdom it is mind blowing the detail at which God operates and always has from the very beginning.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c[This is] because the foolishness of God [is not foolishness at all and] is wiser than men [far beyond human comprehension], and the weakness of God is stronger than men [far beyond the limits of human effort].\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;-1 Corinthians&nbsp;1:25<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, and they that lack the beginning have neither middle nor end.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;-John Bunyan<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dad Joke of the Day:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Did you know muffins spelled backwards is what you do when you take them out of the oven?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have a great Wednesday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good Morning!
