Seeking Wisdom

Wisdom has built her house; she has hewn out it's seven pillars, she has prepared her meat and mixed her wine, and she has also set her table, she has sent out her maids, and she calls from the highest point of the city, 'let all who are simple come in here!' she says to those who lack judgement. 'leave your simple ways and you will live; walk in the way of understanding.' proverbs 9:1-6

Wisdom is rarely mentioned these days; rarely sought.

I see young people, especially, giving themselves to drink, wild times, obscene language, immorality for 'fun'. I watching their souls darken and foul black muck pour forth.

Did Solomon see the same? It is only as I age I treasure godly wisdom and understanding.

I could say those that give themselves to pleasure and experiences lack wisdom and wonder why things go wrong. Conversely those who seek wisdom will find it and order their paths correctly.

Wisdom builds; it works and it prepares to share. Wisdom dwells in the Holy Spirit and He dwells in me. I seek Him and all He has as opposed to worldly pleasures. Wisdom calls out to simplicity and offers assistance.

I remember being called naive by my father- in-law in my 20's, and I was.
Things are different now. I have learned to seek and treasure wisdom, I heard the call and responded, how about you?
