Walk in Wisdom
“What were you thinking?” If you’ve been asked this question, it’s probably not because you did something brilliant or helpful. Some of the most embarrassing, painful moments of our lives have been accompanied by this very question, because this question arises when something foolish takes place.
The Old Testament, especially the book of Proverbs, has much to say about the differences between wisdom and folly. In the New Testament, James 3:13-18 describes what a wise person looks like.
Ephesians 5:15-21 reminds us that the Christian’s life is to be marked by a change in how we live. Last week we read that we are to walk as children of light – there are things we should be doing and things we shouldn’t. Today we will continue on that theme of “walking,” emphasizing our need to walk in wisdom, as seen in verses 15-21.
