Why is Wisdom a Woman in Proverbs?
Q: I’ve got a good one that came up in a small group tonight! In Proverbs (and probably many other places) why is wisdom a woman? It’s obviously referring to Jesus in many ways. But regardless, why female?
Q: How do you reconcile the moments when you lack faith or don’t trust God?
We can’t overstate that we are fallen creatures in a fallen condition. We’re going to doubt. I don’t want to say it’s normal and we should be okay with it, but I will say it’s normal and it’s okay.
He loves you and me when we fail. God can handle our doubtful prayers.
It’s okay, don’t be hard on yourself. At the same time, don’t stop. Get back in the Word, pray, and surround yourself with Christians who are growing.
Faithfulness is the objective, not success.
