The angels shown here are WISDOM in the center, PRUDENCE in the Summer Green color and DISCRETION in the Berry color.

My friend, Bob Jones, always referred to Wisdom as “the redheaded woman.” When I showed the drawing of Wisdom to him he said: “I always see her as older.” “Yes,” I told him, “but I am not a professional artist, I am doing the best I can.” Wisdom does look more mature than the drawing of her that I am showing you. She is dressed simply with a golden girdle across her chest and around her waist. On her head was some sort of golden enhancement. It looked like thin, golden leaves. It wasn’t a crown as we think of a crown– but a delicate embellishment that marked her station in some way. The Bible says:

Proverbs 3:13-18

13 Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gains understanding;

14 For her proceeds are better than the profits of silver and her gain than fine gold.

15 She is more precious than rubies, and all the things you may desire cannot compare with her.

16 Length of days is in her right hand, in her left riches and honor.

17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.

18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, and happy are all who retain her.

(Perhaps the golden leaves in her hair refer to this verse.) 4:9 “She (Wisdom) will place on your head an ornament of grace; a crown of glory she will deliver to you.”

VERSES SHOWING THE THREE WORKING TOGETHER

Proverbs 8:12

12 I Wisdom dwell with Prudence and find out knowledge and Discretion.

Proverbs 1:3-4
3 To receive the instruction of Wisdom, justice, judgment and equity.

4 To give Prudence to the simple, to the young man knowledge and Discretion.

The colors indicate freshness and an aliveness to that which is being imparted to the hearer.

THE DEFINITION OF PRUDENCE: Wisdom applied to practice.

THE DEFINITION OF DISCRETION: Being careful about what one says or does.
