Knowledge is a tool box
With tools for life within
Add wisdom and discernment
At difficulties grin
Knowledge is not a school box
Housed totally within
But truth and experience
Not mere discussion, paper, pen
Knowledge can be a fool’s box
All plushly lined within
With arrogance and falsehood
Leading astray to sin
Knowledge may be a cool box
Understand workings within
It is so satisfying
To know how and why and when
It was poem writing season recently. Knowledge is a gift from God that may be used for His glory and our good and the good of others or used to promote ones self and deceive and control others. Absolute truth is the basis of knowledge. Sharing ignorance does not lead to knowledge or wisdom. Greater knowledge can lead to greater good or greater evil.
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; Fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Proverbs 1;7
“The mind of the intelligent seeks knowledge, But the mouth of fools feeds on folly.” Proverbs 15:14
