A Deep Well of Wisdom

Seeking Wisdom has been a quest I have been on for a while now. At 48 I feel Wisdom should be a normal part of every day life & that it should be incorporated it into all my response's. I had read an article last year with the saying " whats deep in the well comes up in the bucket." Whenever I am angry or upset I have noticed what comes up is not wise or happy or useful. Instead its useless, & counter productive & all around garbage that should be buried & composted so it can find some purpose. There is a Song by the Wailin Jennys titled Deeper Well & that Idea of looking for a Deeper Well started a whole new line of thought.
In my study of Gods word I found Paul had a prayer for Spiritual Wisdom in Ephesians 1: 15-23
15-16 That is why I always remember you in my prayers and thank God for you. I have done this ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all of God’s people. 17 I always pray to the great and glorious Father, the God of our Lord Jesus Christ. I pray that he will give you the Spirit, who will let you know truths about God and help you understand them, so that you will know him better.
18 I pray that God will open your minds to see his truth. Then you will know the hope that he has chosen us to have. You will know that the blessings God has promised his holy people are rich and glorious. 19 And you will know that God’s power is very great for us who believe. It is the same as the mighty power 20 he used to raise Christ from death and put him at his right side in the heavenly places. 21 He put Christ over all rulers, authorities, powers, and kings. He gave him authority over everything that has power in this world or in the next world. 22 God put everything under Christ’s power and made him head over everything for the church. 23 The church is Christ’s body. It is filled with him. He makes everything complete in every way.

All months Ive been focusing on Praying the words..... over & over ...adding & investing in the knowledge within the scripture to the New Well Im digging.
