but whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm. (Proverbs 1:33)
In the context of chapter one, wisdom is speaking. We are reminded here that as we seek wisdom and listen to the wise counsel of God's Word and God's people, we will be led in the direction of safety.
Life is filled with uncertainties. Each day we make decisions and each decision has consequences. It's impossible to know how everything is going to turn out in life. Because of this, many are paralyzed. They don't know what to do... which way to turn. Many make bad decisions and live with the regrets of short-sighted thinking.
Wisdom is built day-by-day. As we spend time in God's Word and with godly people, we grow in wisdom. The result is less stress and an assurance that when decision time is upon us, we will make the right choice.
