WISDOM FOR OUR TIME

Food for thought from the wisest of kings!




Ecclesiastes 10:1-6 (NLT)

1 As dead flies cause even a bottle of perfume to stink,
   so a little foolishness spoils great wisdom and honor.

2 A wise person chooses the right road;
   a fool takes the left one.

3 You can identify fools
   just by the way they walk down the street!

4 If your leaders are angry at you, don’t quit! *
   A quiet spirit can overcome even great mistakes.

  --The Ironies of Life

5 There is another evil I have seen under the sun. Kings and rulers make a grave mistake
6 when they give great authority to foolish people and low positions to people of proven worth.

7 I have even seen servants riding horseback like princes—and princes walking like servants!

(Emphisis added and paraphrased)

*(Perservere in Truth)

Ask God for wisdom!
