Wisdom (Kanji)
.JPG)
By Ramone - Autumn 2006
Yoko and I were talking at a cafe or donut shop, I think, when this came up. Perhaps it was when we were thinking of names for our son? These are the Japanese characters (derived from Chinese originally) called "kanji". In this case, these kanji make up the word "wisdom" (pronounced "chi-e"). It is often a girl's name.
I wrote it down at the time because I was impressed by the individual meanings of the two kanji. The first character is "know" or "knowing", and the second character is "grace", "favor" or "blessing".
You could say then that "wisdom" means "knowing grace".
Amen!

I'm putting this up for my friends Leslie & Laura Camacho in the States, whose daughter Sophia ("wisdom" in Greek) turned two recently! Happy birthday, Sophia! May you know His grace above all! In Jesus' name, amen.
