We need wisdom at each moment of our lives. If we have wisdom, we can avoid hardships, or even if we encounter one, we can overcome and produce a good result. For this reason Proverbs 3:18 says, "She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, and happy are all who hold her fast." Zhuge Liang was a very wise person. He was a strategist during the Three Kingdom period of China. He could foresee future events, understood the weather conditions, and even changed the course of the winds. Liu Bei was virtuous and gained the trust of the common people, but he could not have enough power for a long time since he lacked wisdom. In his search for a strategist he finally gained Zhuge Liang. Following Zhuge Liang's strategies, Liu Bei formed a strong nation after winning a series of battles and sometimes making peace with enemies.
