Proverbs 3:18- She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.
Wisdom is a source of sustenance. It helps us to survive. As a tree that would bear fruit in its season and nourish those that tend it as well as others, so is wisdom. You see the tree is the tree regardless of how men treat it. You can ignore the tree, tend to the tree, eat the fruit, or deny the fruit; yet the tree is still the tree. Godly wisdom will always be Godly wisdom, yet it is our choice on if we will lay hold of it. Make no mistake, once you lay hold on it, we must fight to keep it. For even in Solomon's wisdom, he would still make many mistakes. We then would be happy if we retain it after we get it. For our flesh is always at war with the ways of God. We must strive to deny the flesh and cleave to that which is good. May we choose life in Christ and deny death in sin.
In Christ,
