Advent: Lady Wisdom Brings You Joy

From our series "Advent." On Advent Joy Sunday, we look to the Proverbs for wisdom on how to maximize our joy. In this ancient proverb, we find a lady who has been calling out to us from before the beginning of time. She knows the way to true happiness. She wants us to follow her. She is the personification of wisdom itself. And at Christmastime, we remind ourselves that the metaphor became a reality when the wisdom of God entered our world through Mary's womb. The question is, will we choose to trust the God who become flesh, even when it doesn't make sense? If so, we will arrive at joy that truly lasts.
