I searched in my heart how to gratify my flesh with wine, while guiding my heart with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was good for the sons of men to do under heaven all the days of their lives. Ecclesiastes 2:3
Wine and folly? Whoa, king, better ease up there! In the Bible there are many to-do's, but sometimes we come upon a to-don't. It may be better for us to see how King Solomon with his famous wisdom came out in this experience before we take up wine and folly together. It takes little experience with wine to know that too much of it brings on folly, and then wisdom is out the window! Solomon likely knew all that before he began this experiment. Read on in Ecclesiastes and Proverbs to see what the king discovered in his God-given discernment about many of the earthly things we seek out.
God's love and mercy to you,
