" There was no end to all the people who were before them. But those who came later were not pleased with the successor. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind. " - Ecclesiastes 4:16
better a poor but wise youth than an old but foolish king who no longer knows how to take warning.
wisdom is supreme.
wisdom is moving in the Spirit.
wisdom is being humble to take warning.
wisdom is less of me; and Spirit: take over.
wisdom is empowering.
wisdom is enriching.
wisdom is valuable.
wisdom is priceless.
but
wisdom starts with brokenness.
wisdom starts with humility.
wisdom starts with us realising we are nothing apart from God.
wisdom starts with us willing to be used by God for his purpose.
wisdom starts with "Father it is not i, so please increase in me."
success is meaningless.
it is an endless cycle.
a chasing after the wind.
through it all,
our humility was the key element God was seeking for.
WAS i too proud to take warnings?
maybe i was.
i should have gone to the doctor. ;)
is it too late, now?
