22 How long, O simple ones, will you love being simple? How long will scoffers delight in their scoffing and fools hate knowledge? ~ Proverbs 1:22
While Wisdom screams at the top of her lungs, those who are spiritually asleep will never hear her call. Wisdom calls out to each of us. She gives each and every one of us the opportunity to know and understand the Truth. To see through the lies, deceit, and trickery of the enemy, but if we have closed our ears to righteousness, calloused our hearts, and sewn our eyes shut, then we will never hear her call.
I’ve read many different stories of people who converted to Christianity from Islam, Buddhism, and Atheism. Even though each of these belief systems is vastly different, each one of these conversion stories has one key thing in common, they’re looking for the Truth, regardless of what the Truth is. Jesus promised that if we seek, we will find, and if we knock, the door will be opened to us. Each of these people did exactly that. They sought out the Truth, not the truth of their own beliefs, but The Truth. When they sought, Wisdom began to call to them, and their eyes began to open to The Truth.
Therefore, we can understand that there is none as blind as those who refuse to see. Even when the evidence stares them dead in the face, they still refuse to see or even take a look. This is because they have spiritually killed themselves, taking away the very opportunity to hear Wisdom’s call.
If we want to truly hear from God and grow in our walk with Him. We have to seek His Truth. Not our truth, not the truth of the world, not the truth of church tradition, not the truth of our ancestors, not the truth of society, not the truth of culture, but The Truth of God. Only The Truth of God is trustworthy and perfect without flaw or corruption. Why? Because His very nature is good, perfect, love, and light.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Seek Only The Truth.
