“Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.”  (1 Corinthians 1:25)

This simple principle is one of the most profound truths that helps us navigate around all of the errors that are in the world.  The wisdom of this world cannot compare to the Maker of this world.  The weakness of God is also stronger than any man.  Why settle for less when the Lord offers life in Him?  Come to the One who made all wisdom and has all strength and learn from Him what life is to be like.

Lord, You offer wisdom through Your Word by the power of the Holy Spirit.  In the greatest demonstration of strength in weakness on the cross, You conquered death, the recompense of sin.  Guide me, O Lord, in the way of truth that I may now and always abide with You wherever that may lead.  Guide me according to Your goodness to look at You and live in the truth You have revealed for all ages.

Lord Jesus, You did not resist those who mistreated You, but died for them as well on the cross.  The world calls this foolish, but You have used what the world calls foolishness to make our salvation possible.  Guide me now and always to see that in You alone is the hope for every age, that I may live into the promises You give to those who are faithful.  Lead me now and always, O Lord.  Amen.
