From Gary... Wise or foolish?


Life is time and money (like so many other things) is a means to an end.  If you have obeyed the will of God, HE is with you-  you really don't have a thing to be concerned about.  This is true!!! However, we are only given so much time on Earth, so use it wisely!!!  

Ephesians, Chapter 5 (WEB)
 15  Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise;  16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

Hebrews, Chapter 13 (WEB)
 15  Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise;  16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

Now that I look a little more closely at those two verses, I see a contrast of wisdom and foolishness. How you live (which is walk in these verses) is either wisely or foolishly. The wise person listens to the Lord, and the foolish listen to something else. Be wise and not foolish- time is running out, for our days are all numbered!!!
