Read It: Ecclesiastes 9:12 -10; Psalm 7:12-17; Proverbs 26:27 Live It: The older I get, the more I find myself cherishing my grandfather’s wisdom. He was, by no means, the richest but he was well respected. He did many things that at one point made me question his ability to work out a problem, but the older I get, I understand why. In today’s scripture, Solomon presents us with this thought: Sometimes we don’t know how to appreciate what God has already given us. We always want to look for the big and obvious, but we don’t seek the humble and quiet. I believe that this scripture talks a lot about what we go through in our journey of faith. Sometimes we despise the wisdom and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Remember what Solomon said in Ecclesiastes 9:17-18 “Better to hear the quiet words of a wise person than the shouts of a foolish king. Better to have wisdom than weapons of war, but one sinner can destroy much that is good.” Let’s not despise the guidance of the Holy Spirit. His gentle guide is something we will always have to be thankful for. Pastor Rafael
