James 3:13
"Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom."
The wise prove themselves wise by living a good life - characterized by deeds done in humility. Wisdom does not point fingers or show off - wisdom is part action but mostly attitude. A person with authority is not necessarily a wise person but a wise person is able to take a position of authority and redefine it - by serving others quietly - by being there and being responsible - by demonstrating through actions of all shapes and sizes that they are more concerned about helping others than their own welfare or promotion.
Wisdom is something that is worth chasing after. The world needs more people with wisdom - it starts with building a relationship with God. Chase wisdom with all you have.
