Wisdom

I know it’s a gift from God.

But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. For to one is given the word o wisdom through the Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:7 & 8

I never really thought about how it come into existence and when, etc. Then in Proverbs…the answer. The title in my Bible is The “Origin” of Wisdom. Clear as a bell but I hadn’t seen it before. Verses 22 to 31 in chapter 8 reads:

The Lord possessed me at the beginning of His way, before His works of old. From everlasting I was established, from the beginning, from the earliest times of the earth. When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no springs abounding with water. Before the mountains were settled, before the hills I was brought forth; while He had not yet made the earth and the field, nor the first dust of the world. When He established the heavens, I was there, when He inscribed a circle on the face of the deep, when He made firm the skies above, when the springs of the deep became fixed, when He set for the sea its boundary so that the water would not transgress His command, when He marked out the foundations of the earth; Then I was beside Him, as a master workman; and I was daily His delight, Rejoicing always before Him, Rejoicing in the world, His earth, and having my delight in the sons of men.

Wow! What an answer to my wondering!!
