1 Corinthians 1:24
The Gift of Wisdom provides us God's view of things, a kind of divine perspective on reality that penetrates through evens and perceives the divine presence and action at work, even in very tragic and painful situations. To see God in suffering is indeed a high level of the Gift of Wisdom. Some things are to be learned in this perspective that cannot be learned in any other way. The Gift of Wisdom is the source of the Beatitude of the Peacemakers, those who have established peace within themselves and who have ordered their own great variety of faculties into a unity that submits to God's direction and inspiration. They are also able to establish peace around them -- whether it be in their families, communities, or the workplace.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. Matthew 5:9
