7B RELIGIONAEl^e Charlotte $o«t Thursday, May 18, 2006 Appreciate gift of wisdom Continued from page 5B Looking at verse 1, it is dear to see wisdom has a pur pose which is to relay a mes sage. This is dear to see for she cries out and her voice is lifted up which clearly shows she has nothing to hide. She is available to everyone, sedc- ing to persuade people to lis ten and embrace her prind- ples. She does not want to see people stumble and be ruined by their errors. This is why she makes herself known everywhere by standing at the highest of heights so she can be seen and heard, at intersections (often in Scrip ture roads and intersections have a symbolic significance. They call to mind diflfer^t paths of life or “places of ded- sion where you can take a new direction, follow another signpost, or even get ...lost.

It is also important to note even the wisest of God’s children are subject to sin, there is necessity of (Sod’s fatherly discipline to increase wisdom and blessing (Prov.

At the beginning of our les son, I noted that wisdom rep resented truth. Wisdom does not seek to be popular or curry favor. The follower of wisdom loves truth so much that he despises evil. A follower of wisdom hates evil because it is the mortal enemy of aU that is decent and good.
