The two callings: what will you choice? (Part 4)
First calling: the Wisdom:
Second calling: the foolish woman:
Pay attention to the difference: the Wisdom is crying upon the highest places, while the foolish woman is calling sit on a seat in the high places.
The Wisdom don’t spare effort: she goes to the highest places, which are very difficult to get access. Her wish is that everyone can see the true Light of this world (see Matt 5:14-16; John 8:12; 9:5). Her desire is that anybody can’t excuse themselves for not hearing Jesus’ Word. She cries aloud and send her maids to assure that there won’t be any corner where her words won’t arrive.
Although she cries in the highest places, she sends her maids all around the world (see Mark 16:15) in order to ensure that each person will be able to be a precious soul.
The foolish woman, nevertheless, don’t care for her house. She is always changing her dwelling, always seeking what is more convenient. And her desire is for high places, that is to say, highlight places, but of easy access. She is alone, accommodated on a seat (as if it was a throne), calling only the precious souls who pass by her. She desires to veer those who are precious to the eyes of the Creator (see Proverbs 6:26) to take advantage over them.
O truth servant of the Creator doesn’t pine for attracting disciples after them (see Acts 20:30), but prepare those who Jesus brings to him so that they can go where he can’t go (see 2Cor 10:16).
So, may Jesus able us to fill ourselves with His wisdom in a way that His wisdom can be a seed in the life who absorbs it. After all, we aren’t to be a person as Ezekiel was to many people: someone good of being heard (see Ezekiel 33:22,23), but not of being followed.
In other words, Jesus’ wisdom in our lives can’t be only the pulp of the fruit, but all the fruit so that who hear us can be a source of life that flow toward eternal life (see John 4:13,14).
Have a good holiday pondering on this in Christ.
First calling: the Wisdom:
- “Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars: She hath sent forth her maidens: she *crieth* upon the *highest* places of the city,” (Pro 9:1,3).
Second calling: the foolish woman:
- “A foolish woman is clamorous: she is simple, and knoweth nothing. For she sitteth at the door of her house, *on a seat* in the *high* places of the city, *to call those who pass by*, who are going straight on their ways; ” (Pro 9:13-15).
