Be Wise, Do Good, Know God
"So we have continued praying for you ever since we first heard about you. We ask God to give you a complete understanding of what he wants to do in your lives, and we ask him to make you wise with spiritual wisdom. Then the way you live will always honor and please the Lord, and you will continually do good, kind things for others. All the while, you will learn to know God better. ( Col. 1: 9-10, NLT)

Maturity comes from applying what we've learned in past experiences to current decisions. It is a gradual process from which we gain understanding and wisdom. We are always learning but our wisdom remains earthbound unless we specifically ask God for more. There is never a time in our lives when we will not experience new challenges and depending on God for insight and help is far wiser, exceeding anything we might gain from the human process of learning.

Only God can take our gains, our losses, our tragedies and triumphs and gently ease them into our psyche and hearts, removing the pain, and preserving the joys. Seeking spiritual wisdom and God's best will develop within us a way of living that will indeed honor and please him. In return, he shares with us his heart-changing love and his world-changing ideas.
