Day 80 Wise Creation | Proverbs 8:24-26

Wise Creation

24 

I was born before the oceans were created,
     before the springs bubbled forth their waters.

25 

Before the mountains were formed,
     before the hills, I was born—

26 

before he had made the earth and fields
     and the first handfuls of soil.

The poem described how God made the world. God worked carefully. He loves people. So he prepared a beautiful home for us. Compare this with Genesis 1.

The poem talks about the ‘birth’ of wisdom. This is poetry. The poet is not saying that one day, wisdom was born. He does not think that before this, there was no wisdom. God was wise, even before ancient times. God was wise, even before he made the world. God has always been wise.

God loves justice, and a righteous person speaks justice. In our intricate world, how does one determine what is just? The law of God resides within their heart. Currently, in the United States, there is extensive deliberation regarding the appropriate handling of refugees and immigrants. What is the just path to take in dealing with them? Do not rely on the Democrats or Republicans to discern what is just. Do not accept my words as the words of God. Consult the Bible instead. What does the Bible say about the treatment of foreigners in unfamiliar territory? If you have knowledge of God's law, it may alter some of your perspectives on refugees and immigrants. Proverbs informs us that God's Wisdom has existed since the formation of the earth. God's Wisdom permeates all of Creation. To live a fulfilling and purposeful life, one must become acquainted with God's Wisdom. 

Let me ask you?  Is there a friend who needs to be introduced to God's Wisdom? How will you convey this message to your friend?
