Contemplate that wisdom is a quality transmitted by God, Mind, and that it is your GPS for a life filled with goodness. Realize that whenever you use wisdom, you are listening to God and when you listen and act on it, that is God good, guarding, guiding and governing you.
Awareness Exercise: Become aware of your relation to the Divine by noticing when you are exercising wise judgment in your daily activities. Stop for a moment and really be with the feeling associated with your certainty about the wisdom that has informed you of your decision. Memorize that feeling because it indicates when you are listening to God and feeling that oneness with Him/Her. And then notice if you feel that feeling again throughout the day. Note what qualities are present; note that you are consciously in the presence of Mind.
