Fools for Christ

The wisdom of God seems like foolishness to the world, and so following God’s wisdom inevitably leads to us feeling foolish. The pressure to give in and embrace the “wisdom” of the world can be strong. Resisting takes sacrifice, from passing on a promotion, to ending a relationship, to letting go of ego, and beyond. But until we are willing to be seen as fools by the world, we are not able to fully follow the Lord.
