In Youth... In Age...

In youth we learn; in age we understand.
– Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach, 19th century German writer/novelist

When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. – The Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 13:11 (NKJV)

By Faith! In Faith! (Hebrews 11)

In the Bible we see many examples of the importance of learning wisdom, especially when we are young, but alas it usually takes time and years to begin to get it.

So, as a young person, try to learn wisdom and gain understanding as much as you can while you are still young. And if you are older, hopefully you’ve gained a measure of wisdom, but don’t stop now there’s plenty more to be had.

I don't have a lot of years per say , But I think I'm about half way there . I have learned that you are never done learning , and someone can always teach you something , Young or old doesn't matter ( which end of the equation your on either ) There are many people willing to teach , we are not always open for listening ..
Amen , I'm done ..
