Welcome to Day 1899 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.
This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom
Action Or Words – Daily Wisdom
Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 1899 of our Trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote and some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before.

Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase Wisdom and Create a Living Legacy. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2016%3A16andversion=NLT (Proverbs 16:16) How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver! If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget:

Today’s quote is from Mark Twain, and it is: Action speaks louder than words but not nearly as often.
Actions or Words


We all know people who talk a little too much and are short on taking action. They are the type who will gladly share their opinion, but not lend a hand to assist. Unfortunately, we all fall into this situation, and we need to take more action and speak fewer words. Our actions speak much louder than our words, even if you have no sound made from those actions. Jesus’s half-brother James said the same thing about our faith when he announced that faith without works is useless. So show your faith by your actions. Instead of speaking, just do it. Instead of telling someone what you plan to do, show that person what you have done and are now doing. Words are a lousy substitute for action. Instead, use words to be kind and encouraging to others. If you have a choice between actions and words, choose action every time.



https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=James+2%3A14-17andversion=NLT (James 2:14-17)

What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions? Can that kind of faith save anyone? Suppose you see a brother or sister who has no food or clothing, and you say, “Good-bye and have a good day; stay warm and eat well”—but then you don’t give that person any food or clothing. What good does that do? So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless.

As you ponder this nugget of wisdom for yourself, please encourage your friends and family to join us and come along tomorrow for another day of ‘Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.’
