The first step on the path of wisdom is to realize that we are part of the problem, not part of the solution. In our own self-righteousness, we often think that we have already arrived, and that others need to catch up with us. But true wisdom comes from humbly admitting our weakness and submitting ourselves to God.
ABOUT THIS SERIES:
If life sometimes seems empty and meaningless, you aren't alone. One Preacher in the bible even agrees. He surveys his life's great accomplishments and successes, and sees that ultimately, it's all in vain. So what is the point of living? He concludes that in the end, when we live our lives not simply "under the sun," but "unto the Son," all that is meaningless in life takes on great meaning, even eternal meaning, and gives us much to live and hope for.
