For the waywardness of the simple will kill them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them; Proverbs 1:32

These are strong words. In later chapters, we’ll explore the value of actively seeking wisdom. This verse, however, speaks to the folly of remaining complacent in our pursuit of wisdom.

Why do you think God is this strong about wisdom and becoming wise? Mainly because it’s important! He knows fully the value of wisdom and the vanity of foolishness.

When you pray today, ask God to give you wisdom. It wil be the theme for the next year perhaps. It’s a good theme and one worth exploring day by day. We simply cannot have too much wisdom.
