John 16:12-15

Wisdom about life comes slowly and sometimes painfully. Hearing the ‘right' answer at the ‘wrong' time does not help us. e need to be ready and open to receiving the truth if it is to have any impact. Perhaps you can recall some occasions when it was the ‘right' time for you to learn a truth about life. Remember your experiences of growing in understanding and truth.

Perhaps the Spirit guided you through the words of someone close to you, or through the words and actions of people you read about or saw on TV. Or maybe understanding came to you when praying or reflecting on your life. Remember and give thanks for the people who have helped you to greater wisdom on your journey through life.

Wisdom is handed on from person to person, and from generation to generation, within families, within communities, etc. Are there any wisdom sayings that you cherish from what has been handed on to you?
