Reflections with Andy - Ecclesiastes 9: 17-18 - 10: 20 – Where Wisdom Is

In this reflection on Ecclesiastes 9:17–10:20, the Teacher continues exploring the value and limitations of wisdom. While wisdom is portrayed as better than foolishness, stronger than weapons, and worthy of pursuit, it still cannot remove life’s uncertainty or guarantee control over the future. The devotion contrasts the Teacher’s growing cynicism with the Christian conviction that wisdom itself is not the ultimate goal—Jesus is. The reflection wrestles honestly with anxiety, uncertainty, and the human desire to control outcomes, ultimately suggesting that true wisdom is not found in mastering the future but in trusting that God is already present there. Even when life feels uncertain, believers can rest in the promise that wherever the future leads, God will meet them there.Join us for our daily reflections with Andy.
