Getting the Most Out of the Mist
What Wisdom Can and Can't Do
Ecclesiastes 7:11-29
Read Psalm 46:10. Some translations use the phrase “cease striving” at the beginning of the verse. What are some of the ways you need to “be still” or “cease striving” in your own thoughts as you yield to the wisdom of the Lord?
Read Ecclesiastes 7:14. In addition to what is said here, what would be some helpful things to “consider” in the day of adversity? Find some specific verses that would be helpful to dwell on in those times.
Read Proverbs 2:11. How much do you think that you honestly value wisdom? What would it look like to value wisdom more than you do? What are some ways you have seen wisdom preserve and protect you?
Read Ephesians 4:1-3. These verses remind us that humility (and not self-righteousness) should characterize true Christian unity. What are some of the ways you might be tempted to be self-righteous in relationships with others? What are some ways you could be humbler and more gracious?
What are some of the foolish schemes of the world that might appear tempting to you? While these things may appeal to the flesh, how does wisdom help us to see that they are actually destructive? What are some verses you will meditate on this week to remind you of these truths?
