Attainment of Wisdom and Understanding

"Attainment Of Wisdom And Understanding" "A word to wise shall be sufficient!" How often I have heard that said. That explains why we were given two ears to listen twice as much so later we'll not dread! If one is digging a ditch for another, then he might as well dig two! If it should be that his plan does happen, in short time the digger will get his due! There is a way that will seem so right to do! One will not heed the word of warning! The disaster of the end result may be the sorrowful time of a "mourning!" Neither fresh nor saltwater can abide in the same stream! This pertains to words emanating from the mouth! Some words have a sparkling, fresh taste to them- the brine of salty words will give one "cottonmouth!" Speaking of mouths "The Tongue Can Be A Fire" that no one on this earth can tame! Both death and life words can be spoken.... one should "BEWARE" of what one doth proclaim! The cowardly and the wicked tend to flee when there's no one in pursuit! Their feet get entangled and they trip and fall! Running fearfully is not their best attribute! "Hell and Destruction" are never full! It seems there's plenty of room for both! These two things should be avoided at all costs! They should not be allowed any growth! Can one take fire in the bosom and their clothes not be burned? Now that's one lesson I do not want to know! That's not wisdom I ever want learned! Mercy and truth should not be forsaken! Wisdom says "bind them around one's neck!" Also write them on the tablets of the heart.... This will keep them both in check! Attaining Wisdom and Understanding "NEVER EVER" takes a day off! Every waking moment these two... "DO PURSUE!" Attain them both no matter what the cost!
