Invitation to Supper, a Reflection on Proverbs 9:1-6

Much of Proverbs points us to the choice we can make between wisdom and folly. Wisdom, personified as a hospitable woman, invites us over to share dinner. She has prepared the banquet and the place to share it. She issues the invitation that includes an exhortation: "It's time for you to grow up, to get over being foolish and begin living the life you should."

We still have that choice. We can choose the living bread that God sent from heaven.
