In school, you are learning lots of facts, dates, and information. That’s an important foundation for living. But more important is how you use the things you know…in understanding and applying them to your life. That’s wisdom.
Two men in the Bible stand out when we think of wisdom. Solomon, the third king of Israel, was especially known for his wisdom, which he had asked God to give him. Daniel, advisor to at least four different kings during the captivity of Israel, was always very ready to explain that all of his wisdom, from interpreting dreams to reading mysterious writing, came from God.
This Sunday we’ll look at an example of Daniel’s great wisdom. Belteshazzar, king of Babylon, gave a great feast and brought out the golden cups which his ancestor Nebuchadnezzar had looted from the temple of God in Jerusalem. Bad choice! A hand appeared during the feast and wrote mysterious words on the wall, which no one was able to read. No one but Daniel, that is…with God’s help.
We will learn what the words meant and how they came true that very night, as God judged the actions of Belteshazzar.
This would be a great day to invite a friend to Sunday School. Don’t forget your Thanksgiving bags filled with food for needy families!
Tom and Sydney Cook
