- | {{ 2018: | + | Wisdom is calling you and me. It is there. It wants us to search it. It is very interesting, |
- | + | biblical books clearly believe that wisdom is talking, all the time. It is calling. It can be heard. It is | |
- | ** | + | even loudly on the roads. And it calls me to listen. It calls me to wait. It calls me to come daily. |
+ | Every day, wisdom wants to be with me. | ||
+ | There is a fantastic promise of wisdom. It promises life to us, and favor from the Lord. Wisdom is linked | ||
+ | to God (= the Lord). But it also gives a warning: who fails to find wisdom, will be hurt strongly. It is even | ||
+ | an active act: you hurt yourself when you do not find wisdom. Is it active? Can it be an active act not | ||
+ | to find something? Yes, if you close your eyes, if you keep your ears from listening! These verses tell | ||
+ | us that it is us who do not want to listen, the voice of wisdom is there, loudly. The voice of God can | ||
+ | be heard. | ||
- | + | I would have to say much on this topic. I have been searching to hear this voice for quite a while. But | |
+ | then I found it. I started to hear. And I started to listen. I found this life, God talking to us. There is | ||
+ | a lot more to say. But first of all: we need to open our eyes, the eyes of our heart. Wisdom is there | ||
+ | already talking to us. You can find, if you start to search! | ||
