Readings for the 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time - Wisdom 6:12-16; Matthew 25:1-13
Is there a difference between wisdom and knowledge? Anyone able to quote Isaiah and the Gifts of the Spirit (think back to our Confirmation!) would say yes, but what exactly is the difference? Is one more valuable than the other? And how can it be obtained? Wonderful questions which our readings directly address today. The Spirit of Wisdom, Sophia, desires to be caught. But She is elusive and must be sought and pursued. That is up to us.
