Life is not a "flip of the coin." We can choose pathways of blessing by the wisdom God gives.Wisdom Matters: Is it better to be wealthy, good looking, successful, popular or wise?

God has wisdom that grants both life and healing.Wisdom Matters: Is it better to be wealthy, good looking, successful, popular or wise?

Most of all, we are to guard our heart. From it, flow the issues of life. Wisdom Matters: Is it better to be wealthy, good looking, successful, popular or wise?
