23 All this I tested by wisdom and I said,
“I am determined to be wise”—
but this was beyond me.
24 Whatever exists is far off and most profound—
who can discover it?
25 So I turned my mind to understand,
to investigate and to search out wisdom and the scheme of things
and to understand the stupidity of wickedness
and the madness of folly. Ecclesiastes 7:23-25
What have you discovered in the past week when reflecting on your life? We all have a purpose and want to improve ourselves, and I assume we want to pursue wisdom from God. However, our mind can get cluttered and can retreat into some pretty dark places if we aren't careful. The wickedness of people is prevalent and has always been around, but with wisdom we can avoid it, along with discovering what God wants for each one of us. We need to daily turn our mind to learn and understand what God wants, and fend off the enemy with everything we have. Discover what God wants from you and live it. Find the thing that keeps you close to Him and develop that wisdom of life to be able to share with others.
Have a great weekend.
Matt
