Text: Ecclesiastes 7:7–10

Speaker: Tony de la Riva

--

True wisdom refuses to put a price tag on integrity, and the wise person plays the long game instead of calling it quits before things develop. These two truths are the first of four in a "string of pearls" found in Ecclesiastes 7:7–10. They remind us that true wisdom stays the course when temptation presses in on us, and that biblical faith endures when results seem slow to come. So whether it's a matter of integrity, or of patience with a situation or with other people, God’s way is always the long game, where character is better than compromise, and a patient spirit is better than the arrogance of immediate gratification.
