Scripture: Proverbs 3:17
Her ways are pleasant ways, pills and all her paths are peace.

Thought for the Day: This passage form Proverbs is about wisdom. While the entirety of this beautiful love song to Sophia compares the worthlessness of material riches to the incredible wealth of wisdom, it also mentions that God creates the universe through wisdom.

One might consider that the coming birth of Christ is also the birth of wisdom incarnate to a world sorely in need of instruction on how to live right with God and each other. And then, if we are to call ourselves disciples, wisdom is the key to Christ, and both are the key to wisdom, and wisdom the key to peace. Like the shepherds to whom Jesus’ birth was revealed so long ago, we too will continue to follow the star that guides the world to wholeness, and the one to whom it points.

Prayer: May I be made peaceful in Christ, and become a beacon of wisdom and peace for others. Amen.
