Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth – James 3:13-14
I am surprised at the James passage. I didn't expect that the root of a lack of wisdom is bitter jealousy and selfish ambition. The James passage goes on to say, "But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere (vs. 17).
Wisdom isn't applying "smarts." Instead, it is the result of applying the fruits of the spirit - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control…against such things there is no law" Galatians 5:22-23
