—Proverbs 9:1-6, 8-10, 13-18

Do you own any of those store benefit cards? You know, the ones that promise you discounts or coupons or free cups of coffee for shopping with them. These passages promise us something much better: wisdom and all the benefits it delivers. “Walk in the way of insight,” Wisdom calls. Those of us who respond with a “yes,” are promised many good things. The trick is to be mindful of where we are seeking wisdom. The type found in the world will never fully satisfy and may even have negative consequences for us. God’s wisdom, though, will always satiate us, strengthen us, and fill our wells completely.
