Week 4: Chapter 3 — When Wisdom Doesn't Know What to Do

1.Lysa opens with the honest admission that even a woman pursuing wisdom can feel completely lost in the middle of a hard decision. Have you ever prayed for wisdom and still felt stuck? What did that experience feel like?

2.She introduces a key distinction between decisions made from wisdom and decisions made from emotion in the moment. What are some emotions — fear, guilt, excitement, flattery — that have driven your decisions in the past? How did those decisions turn out?

3.James 1:5 promises that God will give wisdom generously to those who ask. But Lysa notes that wisdom is not always a sudden download — sometimes it is accumulated over time through Scripture, counsel, and experience. How do you currently "accumulate" wisdom? What habits or practices build it up in you?
