Foolishness always has grave consequences! Foolishness leads us to a life of regrets and poor choices. Wisdom, on the other hand, reaps great benefits. In our desire to increase wisdom, there's often a missing ingredient - it's self-control. The presence of self-control, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, greatly increases the likelihood of wise decisions. Disasters can be avoided when self-control is present. The link between self-control and wisdom is strong.
