Our reputation is who we have proven to be over time. People really do know us, and generally, what they say about us when we are not around is pretty accurate. What do people say about us behind our back? Do we have a good reputation?
Being full of the Holy Spirit means to be continually looking to be obedient to Him. Are we living to meet God's desires or are we living for our own agendas? Is God's word and ways a priority in our lives?
Wisdom is life experience in doing things God's way. Wisdom is gained over time by actively pursuing a life pleasing to Jesus. Wisdom is not a "fruit" of the Spirit, but rather, a result of walking in the Spirit over an extended period of time.
Being a person who qualifies to lead in Christ's church is a noble pursuit. Our world needs these kinds of people.
