I was struggling with what to say about this chapter until I read Matthew's blog, then it all made sense. Of course this is all about choosing the right path! Sometimes it just takes someone else's insight to help us see what's right in front of our faces.
We have two WOMEN (again!), one good one evil. One inviting you to enter her house of wisdom and drink of her wine and eat her bread. The other tempting you to enter her house where you will be drinking stolen water and eating bread in secret. Little do you know that this is the way to hell.
We do all have choices to make in our own lives about which path we will follow. It is not always easy to see what the right choice is. I think this is especially true for the younger generation. They tend to follow their friends even when they know they may be making a bad choice. That's why having God in their lives can be so important for these kids. The adults around them need to be the ones who are leading them to the 'house of wisdom' where Jesus will invite them to drink and eat of his body and blood. Passing Faith on to coin Matthew's phrase.
I was amazed to hear of 2 of our youth donating such a large amount of money towards feeding starving children. Our youth are amazing! They are examples for all of us to follow, watch them their excitement is contagious.
