Sermon in a Bottle

32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time - A.  "Resplendent and unfading is wisdom."

A seminary professor long ago urged us seminarians to preach on the Old Testament readings once in a while.  "They too are the Word of God."  Gladly.  We believers are called to learn continually, having no fear of any human science.  Knowledge moves toward wisdom when we exercise the virtue of prudence.  Wesdom is found when our hearts and minds seek her, yet wisdom is ultimately of divine origin.  Like the wise women in Jesus's parable, we should be ever ready to put wisdom into practice in daily living.
