information – knowledge – wisdom

More than ever before

we are swamped with information.

Knowledge only comes by picking

through this mass and analyzing it.

“We are drowning in information

but starved for knowledge.”

- John Naisbitt

What then is wisdom?

“Never mistake knowledge for wisdom.

One helps you make a living;

the other helps you make a life.”
- Sandra Carey

“These days people seek knowledge,

not wisdom.

Knowledge is of the past,

wisdom is of the future.”

- Vernon Cooper

“Where is the Life we have lost in living?

Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?

Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?”
- T. S. Eliot

"Whatever is at the center of our life

will be the source of our security, guidance,

wisdom, and power."
- Stephen Covey

“Don’t let anything less than God

be the center of your life

because everything else

is subject to destruction and death.

God alone is everlasting, unchanging,

full of love and compassion

as we have all seen it in His Son Jesus Christ.

Ask God for wisdom!”

- Claudia Miclaus
