A wise woman once
saved her household from a foolish husband. A foolish woman once ruined her
household by heeding a serpent. A wise man restrained his hand from striking
the Lord’s anointed. A foolish man cursed the Lord’s anointed. A wise man
answered the invitation to the Lord’s banqueting table. A foolish man showed up
without wedding garments. Wisdom cried out from the streets. Fools closed their
ears.
We are gathered here in the presence of
the Lord. In His wisdom, He extended grace to us who did not deserve it. He
held out His hands to us with bread and wine and all good things. The wise man
receives that which is offered. The fool refuses the glory of the banquet. The
wise man is filled up with Christ through the foolishness of the cross. The
fool sees merely bread and wine.
The wise man receives these elements in faith
and gets life in Jesus Christ. So, let us eat and drink and be filled with the
wisdom of God.
