In today’s reading, 1 Corinthians 3:18-20 stood out to me. 18 Do not deceive yourselves. If any of you think you are wise by the standards of this age, you should become “fools” so that you may become wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. As it is written: “He catches the wise in their craftiness”; 20 and again, “The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile.” Wisdom is not a bad thing. But when wisdom keeps us from faith and trusting in God, it keeps us from experiencing God’s power in our lives. We must remember God is the one who gave us wisdom in the first place. Never mistaken our wisdom as something we earned or deserved. It is God given.
