Proverbs - Void of Understanding


Proverbs 7:6-9

 For at the window of my house I looked through my casement,
 And beheld among the simple ones, I discerned among the youths,
a young man void of understanding,
 Passing through the street near her corner; and he went the way to her house,
 In the twilight, in the evening, in the black and dark night:


                        The word ‘simple’ in the Word of God means void of understanding.  We must not be ‘simple’ women.  We must be women who desire to understand the heart of God on matters.  The Lord would have us be prudent - able to assess a situation and make choices led by the Lord’s wisdom for our lives and others.  If we remain simple and not grow in wisdom we might, like this young man, walk too close to compromise and the traps our adversary has set for us.
