An intelligent person aims at wise action, but a fool starts off in many directions. (GNT)
— 箴言:十七24
聖經中常提到『智慧人』與『愚昧人』,只是他們有什麼不同呢?這句經文提到三個不同的地方。首先是『方向』,智慧人懂得到神面前『尋求智慧、Looking for wisdom』,愚昧人卻『四處徘徊、Wanders everywhere』;其次是『焦點』,智慧人『專注智慧、Aims at wise action』,愚昧人『分心四散、Starts off in many directions』;最後是『行動』,智慧人『看重實際、What needs to be done here and now』,愚昧人『醉心夢想、Dreaming about faraway places』。今天在遇見挑戰難處、或面對新的契機時,我們要做哪一種人呢⋯?
