Do you ever find yourself frustrated with others( and even with God) because of how they treat you? Have you wondered why those who blaspheme God seem to have it so good? If so, you are not alone. Far from useless spiritual theory, Solomon's discussion of wisdom paints a picture for us of righteous living in the context of questions like these. Much like honey, which is satisfying to the taste, wisdom offers the reward of a nurtured, happy soul that rests secure in the promises of God Proverbs 24:13-14 My son, eat honey because it is good, and the honeycomb which is sweet to your taste: so shall the knowledge of wisdom be to your soul; if you have found it, there is a prospect , and your hope will not be cut off.
Even though at times it seems as if the wicked prosper and take advantage of the righteous, ultimately evil doers will face the eternal judgment will be exalted in their humility v 15-16
It is important that we do not grow weary as we await God's intervention on our behalf. Because God determines the destiny of those who reject Him, we need not fret over the temporary injustices of this life vv 19-20. Has someone treated you unfairly? Don't despair! Let God handle it! Settling the score with others is unnecessary, and celebrating their demise is impermissible. Wisdom reminds us that delayed victory does not equal permanent defeat. Believers should only fear God and His eternal King, Lord Jesus, knowing that He will deal with those who do otherwise vv21-22
For it is WITH God all things are possible.
Have a BLESSED Halloween Monday!
