Seeking wisdom from God is not just an attempt to get smarter. It is a life-or-death struggle we are in. The temptation to fall in with deceptive and violent men, or to be lured into the passion trap by a flattering woman – both of these lure a man to his grave. Wisdom is not just for the religious. It is the most practical means of self defense available.
LORD, give us the wisdom to follow your ways of life.
Proverbs 2
