Moving Away from Foolishness

Proverbs 18: 2 A fool does not take pleasure in understanding, but in revealing his heart.

The one who believes that his opinion is always correct, that he can be in control of everything, he knows everything, is basing himself and trusting only in his own discernment, but he does not trust God or acquire wisdom.

Foolish people are those who will never find delight in what pleases God, nor will they ever be able to know what the wisdom that comes from above is, because they think that their way of being and thinking is correct, that they have nothing to change. and that you don't need anybody else's help.

Fools will always boast of what they are, what they have achieved, what they can achieve themselves, they believe they are self-sufficient, and there is nothing more false than this, because human beings do not have the ability to control everything and there will be moment in which things will go out of their authority and the only one who will be able to help them is God.

There are things that we cannot handle. So there ends our own prudence, our own opinion, our own confidence and we are broken until we understand that only God can rescue us, only He can give us wisdom, can make us men and women understood of the times.

There is nothing more beautiful than to be benefited with God's grace and favor, making us wise and prudent for his honor and glory.

Let's be more humble from now on and ask God to help us get away from any thought or attitude that leads us to be partakers of folly.

Being wise is a great gift that only God can give us and that through his word and his Holy Spirit we can acquire it.
