Rea word of honoring Ability is the uncommon dexterity to flavour at a problem and solve it through good logical reasoning ability, by applying experience to occurrence problems, by integrating selective information and theories in new ways, and by possessing a huge chime in of acquaintance.Sagacity is the groovy understanding of hu gentle mans gentleman nature, thoughtfulness, fairness, good listening abilities, goledge of self and placing value on the advice and knowledge of others. Learning from Ideas and the Environment places value on ideas, is perceptive, and reveals from others mistakes. Judgment has good sensible judgment at completely measures, takes a long-term rather than a short-term view, and thinks before acting and speaking. Expeditious use of Information watch overs and retains information from experience (both mistakes and successes), willingness to change ones come along based on new experience.Perspicacity Demonstrates perceptiveness, intuition, ability to fill through things, read in the midst of the lines and discern the truth and the proper(ip) thing to do. (Bumgardener & Crothers, 2009) A psyche I believe would be unused would be messiah Christ. deliverer Christ who is known from the record book as the son of God. (II Samuel 712-14 King mob Bible) messiah had tout ensemble six of the characteristics evoked in the in a higher place paragraph. messiah who was the son of God was sent to the world to hold on the world to teach the gospels and to serving save the world from sin. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, that remove everlasting life (Joh n 316 King mob Bible). the Nazarene went to some cities throughout his life preaching the gospels and restoreing the six, casting our demons and raising the dead. Any psyche who believed that the Nazarene was the son of God and had enough faith would be doctored. (John 443-54 King jam Bible) the Nazarene was a re anyy wise man because he studied the gospels, he spent many hours in prayer, and he besides went to the tabernacles to learn and to preach and to heal those in need of healing. Mark 121-28, Luke 431-37) Jesus was a very compassionate man and when people who had the faith would cry out to him for healing he would heal them because their faith was very strong. An example of this would be when Jesus had left the city of Jericho he had a freshet following of people traveling with him when they had come upon two blind men. The blind men perceive the crew and asked what was going on and once they were told they had cried out to Jesus to not pass them by and to enra pture heal them of their blindness.The crowd that was following Jesus tried to rebuke them because they figured the blind men werent commend fit enough for a healing or they just did not want the blind men to frustrate Jesus, but the blind men cried out to Jesus in persistence because they believed and had the faith to know that Jesus could heal them, Jesus thence called out to the blind men and asked what they cherished and they had say they wanted their center field sight back off, so Jesus exposeing that they had the faith told them to arise and that because of their faith they were healed and could discipline again. once the Blind men were healed they followed Jesus and were glorifying God. Mark 1046-52 Luke 1835-43 King James Bible) Jesus was wise in the ways that he taught his parables. For example in (Luke 1025-42 King James Bible), a man who was an expert in the law decided to test Jesus by asking him Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life? Jesus then sa id to the man, What is scripted in the law? How do you read it? The man answered Though shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all they mind and they neighbours as thyself. Jesus then said to the man Thou has answered right this do and thou shalt live.Again the man wanted to justify himself so he asked Jesus Who is my neighbor? Jesus then replied to him with a story most a man who had come from Jerusalem to Jericho and ran into some thieves who naked the man of his clothes and beat him half to death and then left. The man who had been beaten lay on the worldly concern and had been passed by two people who looked at him and left without helping the man. A third man The safe(p) Samaritan came by and saw the wounded man on the ground and had left but came back with supplies to lave the wounded man and bandage him up. Then the Good Samaritan took him to an auberge to take care of him.The coterminous twenty-four hour period the good Sam aritan man got up and before he left, he gave the inn flight attendant notes and told the inn keeper and told him to take care of the wounded man and that any extra money that the inn keeper has to use he will repay him once he returns. Then once Jesus was washed-up with the story he said to the man who was and expert in the law Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbor unto him that wild among thieves? The man then said He that shewed mercy on him. Then Jesus said Go and do thou Likewise. One of the attributes I believe I have fully highly-developed would be Judgment.I may not incessantly use the best judgment at all times, but I feel that my judgment is usually sensible and thought out as sensible as I can control it. When something comes up that I have to use my judgment for, I show to devolve on and think it through as much as viable to find the best possible upshot for the solution. I feel that I would need to fully develop all of the attributes discuss ed in chapter 10 of the reading. These are things that every person has to learn throughout their lives and will continue to develop through the years. audience (Bumgardener & Crothers, 2009) (King James Bible)Reflecting on WisdomReflecting on Wisdom Student Name PSY 220 Due Date Teacher Reflecting on Wisdom In life it seems that we everlastingly told to take advice from grandpa because he has lived a long time and is wise. Grandpa is the go to person for when we have a life issue. My grandfather is a very wise man. He has erudite lessons from life instead of just thinking he was getting punished. He incessantly tells us grandkids and great grandkids that everything happens for a reason a reason to learn from. My grandfathers name is Vernon and he is in his late 80s. Grandpa everlastingly has a reason behind everything he does.He always helps us by talking through our problems with a logical and reasoning view. Grandpa has always helped me to look at both sides of possibilities and apply things that I already know to the point before qualification a finis. Grandpa always has listened to what we have to say and he isnt against taking advice from the younger generation. He always says that he values our input and he will store it in his knowledge swear for future reference. Grandpa is very slapstick along with being logical, he always seems to be able to make light of most situations and can help us look at it from a humorous side of we end up making a bad decision. Normally, because we didnt go to grandpa near it before hand. ) The best advice I have ever gotten from my grandfather is, when you are making a decision think about 6 months from now, or even 6 years, what is the outcome from both sides and can you learn from your choice either way? Throughout his years grandpa has always held a positive mind frame and laced life with humor, he always asks what we learned even if we faced a consequence. I believe that my grandfather is one of the wisest m en in the universe.Grandpa always learns and uses past knowledge before making a decision. Grandpa always had been there it help us with his wisdom and knowledge of lifes great lessons, he has also helped us to install some of the characteristics that will make us wise one day (Baumgardner and Crothers, 2009). Grandpa has installed in us the ability to use our knowledge and our past mistakes to make our decisions. I think that I have encompassed a lot of this from my grandfather. I have learned to look at the mistakes of my sisters and adjust my choices to not make the same mistakes.For example all 3 f my ripened sisters were teen moms. They all are in their late 20s, early 30s and have 4 kids each. They all struggle care for their families, they all are divorced at least twice. I have learned from their mistakes and I am the first in my family to finish high school and not have a child to take care of. I love my daughter and I am thankful that I got my career started before having her, now I know that I can forget her the life she deserves without depending on government assistance for simple things such as housing and food, like my sisters.I see their struggles every day and I know that it is hard on them to only be allowed to spend so much a month on food, or to only be able to live in a home approved by the government. I think that I still have a long way to go before I become a wise person, but I do think I am on my way. In the six attributes of a wise person I have the ability to reason. I look at a problem and think about what the things I have learned from other problems and knowledge I have. I have an understanding of kind nature, but I am still learning a lot about myself.I have learned through grandpa that no advice is bad advice, because someday you just might need it. There is always a chance to learn about various things in the environment and from people around you. unceasingly keeping an out-of-doors mind and opened ears helps with picking up knowledge that we would not get otherwise. I also believe that I have very sensible judgment and I always think about things before I make a decision. I always know the positive and banish outcome and if I can learn something valuable either way. I have the ability to learn from others experiences and from my past experiences.I also am never set in my decision I am open to reconsidering my choices. The one thing I am working on is being able to read between the lines. My grandpa says you can tell a lot about how a person feels or the situation they are in if you can see through what they are saying and what they really mean. This is something that I am not quite great at yet. Maybe I never will be, but it is always worth a try (Baumgardner and Crothers, 2009). . References Baumgardner, S. R. and Crothers, M. .K. (2009).

(Bumgardener & Crothers, 2009) A person I believe would be wise would be Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ who is known from the Bible as the son of God. (II Samuel 712-14 King James Bible) Jesus had all six of the characteristics named in the above paragraph. Jesus who was the son of God was sent to the world to save the world to teach the gospels and to help save the world from sin. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 316 King James Bible). Jesus went to many cities throughout his life preaching the gospels and healing the six, casting our demons and raising the dead. Any person who believed that Jesus was the son of God and had enough faith would be healed. (John 443-54 King James Bible) Jesus was a very wise man because he studied the gospels, he spent many hours in prayer, and he also went to the tabernacles to learn and to preach and to heal those in need of healing. Mark 121-28, Luke 431-37) Jesus was a very compassionate man and when people who had the faith would cry out to him for healing he would heal them because their faith was very strong. An example of this would be when Jesus had left the city of Jericho he had a mass following of people traveling with him when they had come upon two blind men. The blind men heard the crowd and asked what was going on and once they were told they had cried out to Jesus to not pass them by and to please heal them of their blindness.The crowd that was following Jesus tried to rebuke them because they figured the blind men werent worthy enough for a healing or they just did not want the blind men to bother Jesus, but the blind men cried out to Jesus in persistence because they believed and had the faith to know tha t Jesus could heal them, Jesus then called out to the blind men and asked what they wanted and they had said they wanted their eye sight back, so Jesus seeing that they had the faith told them to arise and that because of their faith they were healed and could see again. Once the Blind men were healed they followed Jesus and were glorifying God. Mark 1046-52 Luke 1835-43 King James Bible) Jesus was wise in the ways that he taught his parables. For example in (Luke 1025-42 King James Bible), a man who was an expert in the law decided to test Jesus by asking him Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life? Jesus then said to the man, What is written in the law? How do you read it? The man answered Though shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all they mind and they neighbors as thyself. Jesus then said to the man Thou has answered right this do and thou shalt live.Again the man wanted to justify himself so he asked Jesus Who is my neighbor ? Jesus then replied to him with a story about a man who had come from Jerusalem to Jericho and ran into some thieves who stripped the man of his clothes and beat him half to death and then left. The man who had been beaten lay on the ground and had been passed by two people who looked at him and left without helping the man. A third man The Good Samaritan came by and saw the wounded man on the ground and had left but came back with supplies to clean the wounded man and bandage him up. Then the Good Samaritan took him to an inn to take care of him.The next day the good Samaritan man got up and before he left, he gave the inn keeper money and told the inn keeper and told him to take care of the wounded man and that any extra money that the inn keeper has to use he will repay him once he returns. Then once Jesus was finished with the story he said to the man who was and expert in the law Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbor unto him that fell among thieves? The man then said He that shewed mercy on him. Then Jesus said Go and do thou Likewise. One of the attributes I believe I have fully developed would be Judgment.I may not always use the best judgment at all times, but I feel that my judgment is usually sensible and thought out as sensible as I can make it. When something comes up that I have to use my judgment for, I try to sit and think it through as much as possible to find the best possible outcome for the solution. I feel that I would need to fully develop all of the attributes discussed in chapter 10 of the reading. These are things that every person has to learn throughout their lives and will continue to develop through the years. Reference (Bumgardener & Crothers, 2009) (King James Bible)
