The Woman of Wisdom

“The woman of folly is boisterous; she is naïve and knows nothing… calling to those who pass by, who are making their paths straight…” (Proverbs 9:13-15)

Proverbs personifies wisdom and foolishness as two women calling out to the peoples of the world.  The woman of wisdom offers a hard but straight path, and the woman of folly never stops enticing those who choose that straight path to take the easier route instead.

         Choosing wisdom is a way of life, not just a singular decision, and foolishness never stops beckoning for us to choose convenience over character.  The easy path is rarely the rewarding one.

Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites
