Seeking Wisdom

Oddly enough, my past two devotionals have been all about spiritual wisdom, and on Sunday, wisdom was the main topic.  Wisdom is found in several places in the Scriptures.  I sure have learned a lot through Solomon's unexpected request and the countless Proverbs connoting to God's gift of wisdom.  Confined in the halls of my school, many of my peers seek after wisdom of a different sort.  When students at my school find themselves in trouble, they turn to a friend who is just as spiritually lost as they are. In Phillipians 3, God calls this "seeking after the flesh".  Paul says that as children of God, we must turn to God for wisdom, and not turn to the flesh in hard times. We have to stand strong by God's right side. God knows what is best, so we can't turn from him when the sky falls down on us, and go to an earthly authority.  Many of us have given our lives to God, so why are we living as if we are still flesh-dependent, searching for help in a sea of sin?
