📖 Biblical Anchors:

"Everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock." (Matthew 7:24)

"But everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand." (Matthew 7:26)

🧠 What’s the Difference Between Intelligence and Wisdom?

Intelligence understands quickly, analyzes fast, and may solve problems.

Wisdom lives rightly, even if not academically brilliant.

There are brilliant philosophers… yet they deny God.

"The fool says in his heart, ‘There is no God.’" (Psalm 14:1)
