The Pursuit of Wisdom
Ephesians 3:10-11
To the intent that now to the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,…


"How shall we describe you to others?" asked a disciple of Confucius. He answered, "Say that I am one who, in his thirst for knowledge, forbears to eat, who forgets sorrow in the joy of attainment, and who hardly has time to notice the advance of old age." At another time he said, "My only merit is to study wisdom without satiety, and to teach others without weariness." "These things trouble me, not to live virtuously enough, not to discuss questions thoroughly enough, not to conform practice to doctrine sufficiently, not to reform the bad entirely."

(H. R. Haweis, M. A.)
