in Time is On Our Side … Really? - Ask It Basket on ETC: Everyday Thoughts Collected
I generally agree with what you're saying here. The passage of time does not necessarily mean that one gains knowledge or understanding, much less wisdom. For "the fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom."


A man I knew in ministrty used to say, "I've got thrity years experience" to justify his work, to which I would respond, "No! You've got one year experienced repeated 30 times."
