October 2 "He gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to the discerning." Daniel 2:21 Each newborn child is given wisdom from God. What is within each soul has to come to expression, and in this lies uniqueness. No two individuals are identical; we realize this in the area of wisdom and understanding. There are many kinds of wisdom. Some are wise in their grasp of the world of nature and understand things pertaining to daily life. Others have no understanding of how to cope with the workaday world around them, but may be all the more in tune with the infinite. However that may be, we should be thankful for what God gives us in the course of a lifetime; whatever is shown us comes from God. Each person has a calling in life, and each must hold to it and not let it weaken.
