The words most often used to describe me are "smart" and "weird". I am going to focus on the first. People in general when they meet me hear my vocabulary, the speed with which I can change topics and how quickly I pick up on what people are talking about and say wow you seem really smart. They then also assume (usually) wow if your smart you must be able to solve this problem or some difficult things. You must have life figured out. No if I could do that I would be wise not smart. I am smart, I can think and learn with the best of them but I am not wise. I am human and I err. My senses can be deceived and I can choose to delude myself. So can I know the 'right' answer about anything? Well logically I can't. I can't trust my sources of information (senses, etc). I can't trust my ability to interpret the information I get. So what can anyone trust?
The only logical answer is to ask someone else who knows? Well everyone around is human too- just as fallible as I am. Who else could I ask? The answer is God. He is the only possible source of Truth. So if you want the Truth of anything you have to go directly to the source. On the few occasions in my life I have been wise I have done so.
So pray, God answers prayers. I promise.
