Proverbs 9 = Wise vs. Foolish

These eighteen verses say a lot about being wise verses being foolish.  Wisdom and folly each prepare a banquet(a feast) to capture the individual.  Do one want to be known as a responsible person or do you want to be none as the irresponsible person?  Wisdom appeals to the mind and folly to the senses. 

As we are searching, we sometimes get sidetracked.  Stay on course.  As you are searching, begin to think, what do you want the outcome to be.  Just remember, the kind of person you want to be will affect every area of your life.

We can all be easily deceived in thinking that the forbidden fruit will give you the everlasting life that you want.  That our sinful behavior is more exciting than getting to know God.  We sometimes bring unhappiness on ourselves by making bad choices.

The next time you are getting ready to decide if the choice is the best for you, stop and think.   Will my decision make me hopeful or fearful; will I be covered with blessings or covered with violence; will others appreciate my choice or will it lead others into sin; will I be rewarded with prosperity or be pursued by misfortune.  There are so many other circumstances to consider before making some decisions.

God's choice will give you joy, happiness and life.

There is so much to look at as we make choices. 

The choice is yours, do you want to be wise or do you want to be foolish?
