Tag: Wisdom

That’s what the Books of Proverbs is about. Every single moment is a lesson, if we choose to take the opportunity to learn.

The Bible teaches that Wisdom is a gift that God prepared for those who love him. In Proverbs, we’re told it existed even before creation.

A picture of wisdom was drawn by comedian, Milton Jones, comparing it to cutlery. He said wisdom is not like that special set of knives and forks you keep for certain occasions, locked away in a velvet-lined box – all pristine and shiny. Rather wisdom is like a Swiss Army knife, worn and pitted, used and useful, honed and sharpened.

Wisdom says, “lay aside immaturity, and live, and walk in the way of insight.”  That implies getting up and leaving the table, going back to where you were called from and sharing the invitation.  The seats at this table will never be full!  This is a perfect party from which no-one will be turned away once they respond.
