  1. 1. This story pertains to the gift of wisdom by, it teaches you to have good judgement and when you are given a large amount of something, you shouldn't just go and spend it all right away because it could be useful for many other things as well. When the country had a severe famine, I think the younger son had used knowledge and what he had learned on the fields back at his home to hire himself out to a citizen who helped with the pigs in the fields too. When the younger son had
    returned to his home, he admitted to his father for what he did was wrong and should have not spent all his valuables right when he received them.

    2. Two people in my life who I believe have the gift of wisdom are, my friend Ruthie (teenager) and my dad (adult). My friend Ruthie has taught me a lot about wisdom and how it can help you throughout your life even when you think its hard. She also experienced a lot of things such as activities outside of school that include sports, crafting, and learning different instruments that take a lot of good judgement and knowledge. My dad has also taught me a lot about wisdom in school, sports and in life in general. I think my dad has the gift of wisdom because he uses good judgement and knowledge when working outside and helping us out with anything we need advice on at home. He also has experienced a lot during his life such as dealing with social problems and other things but I feel like I go to him the most is when I am feeling upset or down about something that is bothering me because I know he will try to help me as much as possible and not let me down.

    3. I think the gift of wisdom will help me in my future by, when something seems challenging I can use what I already know about the subject and try to work my way through it as much as I can. I can also use wisdom when making a decision and have to use good judgement and knowledge so I don't make the wrong choice. Overall i think wisdom will help me in bad situation where i might be looking out for my safety and what is best for me if I am being put on the spot for something.

    4. A song that I think speaks about the gift of wisdom and its importance in a person's life is "Happier" by Marshmallow ft. Bastille. The lyric "Then only for a minute I want to change my mind, cause this just don't feel right to me" pertains to wisdom by, when you are in a situation that you are not sure what to do, you want to make the right judgement and using wisdom and knowledge to help guide you. This lyric means to me that when I encounter a scenario where I may ask for wisdom and knowledge from God that I make the right choice and if there comes a moment where I am stuck and scared that what I'm doing is wrong, I may second guess myself on what is the best thing to do.

  2. 1. The Prodigal Son fits in with the gift of wisdom. It fits in because it teaches you to be wise with what you have and to not waste it. You shouldn't waste what you have, you should use it wisely.

    2. Two people in my life that give me the gift of wisdom are my Dad and Vincent. My dad gives be good life advice. He helps me with things in school and just in life in general. Vincent gives me advice with my school work and things in life. They both help me with the gift of wisdom.

    3. The gift of Wisdom will help me in the future. In high school, I will need to make good decisions with my schoolwork and other things that I do. When I am with friends I need to know how to make the right decision. If they are doing somethings wrong, I need to know not to do it.

    4. The song "Dream On" by Areosmith portrays the gift of wisdom. The lyric "Dream on" means that you should always dream on and use wisdom with those dreams. This lyric means a lot to me because I should always keep dreaming so I can achieve my goals. I should use wisdom with those dreams and when I am trying to achieve them.

  3. 1. The story of the Periodical Son fits in with the gift of wisdom, because the son represents a lost sheep, and the father of the son represents God. The son used wisdom to turn back to his father. His father rewarded him. This is like when we turn away from God, and use wisdom to make the right choice to get back to him.

    2. Two people in my life that I feel have the gift of wisdom is my mom and my brother Sam. They both are always making good choices in life. They turn to Christ when they need guidance. They don't always take the easy way out. They take the right way out. They are both great role models for me as well as my dad and my brother Gabe.

    3.The gift of Wisdom will help me in my future. It will help me in high school to not take the easy way out all the time. It will help me during rough times, so that I will turn back to Christ.

    4. The song "Lean on Me" by Bill Withers speaks about the gift of wisdom. The lyric "Lean on me. When your not strong, and I'll be your friend. I'll help you carry on." means to use wisdom to lean on God, and turn back to him when you are not in a good place or not making good choices. This means a lot to me. It means that God will always be there. It gives me hope to know that if I need God, then I can always use wisdom and turn back to him.

  4. 1. The story of the prodigal son fits with wisdom because you should be wise not to waste what you are given. take everything in moderation. The son who spent all of his money wasted it, he didn't use it wisely he used it on things that he didn't need.

    2. Two people that I believe have the gift of wisdom are my dad and my friend Avery. My dad knows how to smartly handle situations in my life without causing a bigger problem. He has definitely taught me a thing or two about wisdom. Avery always makes the right decision, and thinks about how each action could affect others in the future. She always puts things into the right perspective for me and that helps me a lot.

    3. The gift of wisdom will help me in the future because it will keep me in check with myself. It can help me in making smart decisions about friendships, school, and life. The wisdom that my dad has provided for me can help me be more confident in standing up to people.

    4. The song " Man In the Mirror" by Michael Jackson shows wisdom in the lyrics " I'm starting with the man in the mirror, I'm asking him to change his ways" This quote means that you have the wisdom to see that you can make a change. you also have to have the right judgement to see that you can make the change. This lyric means a lot to me because all of us in the class and even in the world are all consumed by the same problems. someone sooner, or later has to step up and make that change. Anyone can do it, it's just a matter of who.

  5. The prodigal son shows that you should be wise with what you have and what you have been given. It also shows how to be grateful because if you were really grateful for what you have you wouldn't waste it on things you don't need.
    My Aunt Win has a lot of wisdom. She always thinks things through and make sure what she is buying or doing is the right thing for that time. She is also someone who will buy things for herself but not often. I think that is wise because sometimes you do need to buy something or do something you don’t really need to but can benefit yourself. My sister can be a wise person too. Not all the time but she is learning. She is learning what and when to do or buy things. She also asks for help, which I think is wise.
    Having wisdom in my later years will help me make good decisions and not make reckless decisions. It will help me to stay out of trouble and do things that will benefit my career and my spiritual life.
    “God I look to You” by Jeen Johnson, God I look to you and I won't be overwhelmed. It is saying to look to God which is a wise choice that will help you make wise choices. It means that if I don’t know what to do I should look to God to guide me and help me make the right decisions.

  6. 1) The prodigal son fits in with wisdom in a few ways. It shows that you should be useful and wise with what you have. You should make a use out of stuff and if you don't use it give it to others. You should not waste what you have because when you do you can't get it back.

    2) Two people in my life that have the gift of wisdom is my Grandpa. He is very wise on the decisions he makes and helps me to be a better person. Another is my friend Mason. He is always helping me when I need.

    3) Having the gift of wisdom now can help me in my future years in many ways. One being the decisions I make now. If I make bad decisions now, it can affect me when I get older. If I make bad decisions, it could affect my health, prevent me from getting a job, and more. So, this is why I will make wise choices and have the gift of wisdom.

    4) A song that reminds me of wisdom is “The Nights” by Avicii. The lyric I am choosing is, “One day you’ll leave this world behind, so live a life you will remember.” The lyric pertains to wisdom because it means that you should live a good life and be wise with your decisions, and you don’t want to die knowing you wasted your life. What it means to me is that you should give 100% in everything that you and make memories, but also make wise choices, so then you can die happy remembering all the stuff you did and not just forget it.

  7. 1. This parable mirrors wisdom because it shows life without filters, it shows you that you shouldn't take things for granted and should cherish everything you have. Wasting your resources is reckless and frowned upon.

    2.Two people in my life that display wisdom are my mom and one of my friends, Kate. My mom is a sharp thinker and takes everything into consideration, she doesn't waste what she's given and she's grateful for everything she has. Kate isn't like my mom in many ways, Kate thinks more logically and uses moral when she makes decisions. She's grateful sure, but she's better at using her head to make decisions.

    3. Wisdom will help me later in life because it will teach me to be grateful for what I have and help me make wise decisions in the future and teach me to help others the same way. It will help me be aware of my surrounding and keep me conscious.

    4. The song "The Beach" by The Neighborhood shows wisdom in the lyrics "I can admit I am not fireproof" because it shows you not to overstep limits and go too far, it's telling the listener to be aware of what their doing and think about what they're doing

  8. 1. The Story of the Periodical Son reminds me of wisdom because the younger brother didn't use this gift when moving out and starting his journey. Even though it is not a good thing he used his father, he knew he was always going to be thee for him. Just like God is for us. The older brother was unhappy and angry because he had worked so hard all this time and didn't get one piece of reward, but the brother moved out and got a huge reward when he came back. He was being selfish. I know I would be to if I worked so hard and didn't get anything and my brother who did nothing got a big reward.

    2. Two people that I feel have wisdom are my dad and Gianna. My dad is a very wise person and always tells me when I am doing wrong. He is constantly doing good deeds for others and giving me the best advice. Gianna is such a compassionate person and I know I can always go to her for advice. If I feel like doing something that is wrong, she always guides me in the right path by advising me not to do it. I can always go to her for help.

    3. I will be able to use the gift of wisdom later in life to meet the right friends. I think it is very important to use wisdom while choosing friends because your conscience will always tell you if they are good enough for you or not. In choosing a profession you will use wisdom in choosing if it's the right thing for you.

    4. The song "Man in the Mirror" by Micheal Jackson is a great song of wisdom because it explains that if you want to make a change look in the mirror and you're the only who can. "I'm gonna make a change, For once I'm my life. It's gonna feel real good,Gonna make a difference. Gonna make it right," this explains wisdom because it is saying that you are gonna change and make things right. I love this song because it really shows how to make a change.

  9. 1. This story fits with wisdom in that the brother had realized that what he was doing was wrong. And that he was wise enough to go back to his father instead of living a life he would die in.

    2. My dad is a wise person. He tends to see between the lines and doesn't make rash dissensions. He sees the easy way around things and notices the small things in life and understands them. And I have a friend on the other side of Missouri in Saint Joseph, his name is Andy. He tends to have intelligent ideas and always finds a way to do something easier. He’s also really good at noticing people’s emotions and what to say to them.

    3. I think the gift of wisdom will help me in the future by having a job, having good relationships with people, doing good in high school.

    4. "For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see
    There will be an answer, let it be.". This line is from the Beatles song Let It Be and it pertains to wisdom in that it means that there is always an answer, and that there is a chance someone will have the wisdom to see what is right. And it means to mean that even if someone is a little of course in their life, there is always a way for them to come back.

  10. The way this story fits in with wisdom is it teaches how to spend your money wisely. This story also teaches you to make wise decisions. That is how this story fits in well with wisdom.

    Two people that have the gift of wisdom are my grandpa and Luca. The way my grandpa has the gift of wisdom is he is very smart and has seen it all almost. The way Luca has the gift of wisdom is he always get good grade and helps me out not only in school but outside of school.

    I will be able to use the gift of wisdom in high school when I am picking my friends. Another time the gift of wisdom will help me is when I picking what my major in college will be. That is when the gift of wisdom will help me.

    The song I am choosing is See You Again by Once Jameson "Oh, I'll tell you all about is when see you again". The reason this line pertains to wisdom is because it means you will always see the person again. This lyric means to me that you will always see the person again.

  11. 1. This story fits in with the gift of wisdom because it teaches us to wisely use what we are given. We should never just waste anything that we have or that is given to us.

    2. Two people in my life that are wise are my dad and Caty Jane. My dad is very wise when it comes to making the right decision. I know I can always go to him for advice and he will give me advice. I also can always trust what he says and trust that he gave me the right advice. Another person that is wise is Caty Jane. Caty Jane is always there for me and truly takes the time to give me the best advice she can give me. She really understands who I am and is always there for me no matter what. Whenever I need help with a situation, she is always there for me and ready to give me advice.

    3. I think this gift will help me in my future days by helping me always make the right decision. I know that I have to be wise about the choices I make and how they effect myself and others. I also thinks its important so that we can meet new people because you don't want to hang out with people who always do the wrong thing.

    4. "You only get a minute, better live while you’re in it
    'Cause it’s gone in a blink," is in a song by Alan Jackson called "The Older I Get." I chose this verse because it shows the importance of living in the minute. This pertains to wisdom because if we really try to make the right decisions, we will lives in the minute with what we have decided. That's why you should be wise about your decision, so that you can live with knowing that you made a wise choice.

  12. The Prodigal Son fits in with the gift of wisdom. It fits in because its telling you to live your life to the fullest and not waste the time that you have. You should be smart with the things that are given to you. If you waste them there is no point of having them.

    Two people in my life that i feel have wisdom are my Dad and Vince. My Dad has always been there for me even though his health isn't the best. Vince has always been there for me to if i need help on homework and things like that. There are a lot more people that are there for me, too many to list.

    The gift of wisdom will help me a lot in the future. It'll help me by doing good in high school, when I'm an adult, and a lot more. The gift of wisdom will help me pick the right friends in life and who to trust and who not to trust.

    The song "Lean on Me" by Bill Withers speaks about the gift of wisdom. The lyrics "Lean on me. When your not strong, and I'll be your friend. I'll help you carry on." it is saying that God is always there for you if you need him. It helps me understand that God will always have my back no matter what and that if I'm making a bad choice that God can help me make the right choice and not the bad.

  13. 1) This story fits into wisdom because the son knew that he had messed up and he knew that he may not be accepted but he could at least try. His dad loved him and knew that even though he turned away from God, he threw a feast in celebration. The older son asked why and he said “My son was lost and now he is found”. This shows how God goes after that one sheep when the 99 other are there. He was waiting for his son to return and he did because many do not return.

    2. People who have wisdom in my life are my dad and . My dad knows how to see a problem logically and emotionally. He knows the difference between right and wrong. He is never scared to stand up for what he believes in and he teaches me about the Gospel as often as he can. The other person who I believe has wisdom is one of my good friends from youth group, Klaire, she always looks at every situation for every angle, no matter what. She especially looks it over when it pertains to God. She is not one to shut a non believer down, she is one to listen.

    3. I think this gift will help like it does Klaire and my dad. I want to know how to look at a situation from every angle and to know the difference between right and wrong. I want to believe in Jesus for the rest of my life because that’s what I believe in. My faith is extremely important to me and I can’t wait to live my life like these people I look up to.

    4. The song I choose is “I’m Yours” by Jason Mraz. The lyrics are “ I fell right through the cracks, And now I'm trying to get back, Before the cool done run out, I'll be giving it my best-est, And nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention, I reckon it's again my turn, To win some or learn some”. It is actually part of a verse but I think it pertains to wisdom because you have failed and your trying to get back up. Nothing will stop you from making decisions away from God. Nothing can stop you but “divine intervention”. You know it’s your turn to turn back to God. You may lose some battles, but you can win some too. I chose this song because it’s an important song to me, it was my dad and stepmom’s wedding song, and they are people who mean a lot to me.

    4. The song "house of gold" by twenty one pilots.
    She asked me, "Son, when I grow old, Will you buy me a house of gold? And when your father turns to stone, Will you take care of me?" It pertains to wisdom because the mother and father share wisdom with their children, then when the children grow the give it back to them.

  16. 1) The parable of the Prodigal Son fits in with the gift of wisdom by the father showing wisdom to his son after he came back with pretty much nothing. The son spent all his money and he didn't know there was going to be a famine. He went back to his father and his father helped him out with giving him food. His father showed wisdom to him even though the son wasn't even that wise.

    2) Two people in my life that show wisdom are my friend, Anna and my mom. Anna shows wisdom by when I'm not that smart and do something stupid she's there to tell me that I'm being stupid. She helps me in a lot of situations. My mom is very wise and has wisdom. She helps me choose the right way of living. She shows me the smart path I should take.

    3) The gift of wisdom will help me out in later years by choosing the right way instead of wrong. Wisdom will show me that I should be smart about certain decisions. I should be wise with my choices in life and do the right thing.

    4) The song "Stand By Me" is a great song about wisdom. “If the sky that we look upon
    Should tumble and fall, or the mountains should crumble to the sea, I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear, Just as long as you stand, stand by me.” These lyrics show wisdom by the wise person taking care of their friend or family member. They help them through tough times just like a good, wise person should.

  18. The Prodigal Son fits the gift of wisdom by saying that you can’t go spent all your money right after you get it. It tells us to save what we have for something important. We will be rewarded if we are patient.

    Two people in my life that I think have wisdom are my big sister Helene, and my Grandma. My grandma always helps me in difficult times, and will always be there with me. My sister always is making the right decision and is very intelligent.

    The gift of God will help me later to make important decisions. It could be decisions on what school, or on who to be friends with. This gift in my opinion is the most important gift.

    The song I chose for wisdom “Believer” by Imagine Dragons. The line I chose is “Don't you tell me what you think that I can be I'm the one at the sail, I'm the master of my sea.” It is saying that he is the boss of himself and he can make decisions by himself.

  19. 1. The prodigal son fits in the gift of wisdom because it shows us that we need to really think about what we are going to spend our money on before we spend it. In the prodigal son, the man does not use his money wisely, which the story is trying to tell us that we need to be smart with our money and other things. That his how I think the prodigal son fits in the gift of wisdom.

    2. Two people that give me the gift of wisdom are my mom and Kylie. My mom gives me the gift of wisdom because she is constantly giving me advice with everything and telling me what is best for me. Kylie gives me the gift of wisdom because she helps with and gives me suggestions not only in my everyday life but also educational purposes too.

    3. I think this gift will help me in the future days/years because when I am making big decisions for school or sports. Wisdom will help me a lot when I get to high school when I make big education distortions or even small ones. Even when I am playing volleyball, I am going to have to use wisdom on my big decisions in high school.

    4. A song that a chosen is A Thousand Years by Christina Perri. The lyrics I chose are “I will be brave, I will not take anything away, what’s standing in front of me.” This lyric pertains to wisdom because someone is telling her that everything is going to be okay and that she just needs to fight through it. What this lyric means to me is that she is standing up for herself and she is doing what’s best for her

  20. The father had wisdom because he taught his son. He said I have been around you all this time while your brother was away and taught you the skills for life. Now that your brother is home he needs help to find himself and those lessons of life that are important to every human.

    I would say to people that give me wisdom in my life is my cousin Jules and my mom. Whenever I see Jules I talk to her about what has happened during school and she gives me advice on what I should do and talks it out with me. My mom gives me wisdom because she helps me think about issues and helps me figure out the best option for the situation.

    This gift will help me later to meet new people. Wisdom will help me use my past to make good choices when meeting people. Wisdom could also help me get along with other people.

    I choose the song Let It Be by the Beatles. This song means to me to use wisdom and just let things happen and go with the flow. When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me. Speaking words of wisdom, let it be. This lyric works with wisdom because it talks about having that one person in your life that helps you and guides you. Speaking words of wisdom mean to me guiding you on the right path and helping you through rough times, having the knowledge of the past to help to go on in the present or future.

  25. 1. I think the Prodigal's Son fits in with the gift of Wisdom because it teaches how one son's actions weren't as wise as the other's. The older son didn't listen to his father and went away. He spent all of his money and didn't know how to live while the other stayed home, built a farm, and listened to his father. You need to be careful on the choices that you make in life.

    2. The two people in my life I think have the gift of wisdom are my Dad and my friend Abby from my soccer team. I believe my Dad has the gift of wisdom because he always does the right thing and thinks everything through before he acts on anything. He is very smart with his money and budgets for everything too. I believe my friend Abby has the gift of wisdom too. She always thinks things through and almost always makes the right decisions. I look up to both of these people and the both help me try to make the right decisions too.

    3. How do you think that this gift will help you in your future days/years? I believe the gift of wisdom will help me try to make the right decisions for high school and in life. It will help me think about things before I act on them. Wisdom will help me make the right goals and achieve them.

    4. The song I believe pertains to the gift of wisdom is "Stronger" by Kelly Clarkson. The lyrics "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger" makes me think of wisdom because sometimes you have to go through hard times to be stronger. When I listen to this song I believe if I stay strong I can get through anything and it makes me feel like I can do anything.
