—Proverbs 9:13-18
by: Angie Osborn.
Just as Wisdom invites to come in and commune with her, Folly does as well. Unfortunately, Folly can be really loud. It calls to us in ways that may be difficult to turn down. Folly looks appealing, it looks fun. We are warned against folly (foolishness) repeatedly throughout the bible. Foolishness leads us away from the Lord. Foolishness guides us into bad decisions. Foolishness subtracts from the quality of our lives. Foolishness leads to death. We need to be on our guard against foolishness. The best defense against Folly is our old friend Wisdom. Lean on the Lord’s wisdom. Ask him to guide you and lead you in His way. Seek his wisdom and live in his joy!
