In chapter nine we see a comparison of the words of Lady Wisdom and the words of Lady Folly. It’s easy to read this chapter and be tempted to move on really quickly believing that this allegorical poem doesn’t have much relevancy to our day to day lives. But isn’t that what Lady Folly wants us to think? So let’s dig deeper.
She Reads Truth had some great questions to ask ourselves about having wisdom or folly. As we ask ourselves these questions let’s ask God to reveal to us where we are seeing folly and praise Him where we are walking in wisdom. Here are the questions (again this is She Reads Truth questions I didn’t write them):
– Can you see wisdom at work in your life? In your day to day life? If so, how? Praise God for that. If not, why not?
– Can you see folly at work in your life? If so, where? Repent and ask God for direction to walk away. Where do you see victory where He has replaced folly with wisdom?
Selah.
