There is a dark foe who wants to lead you astray and keep you from wisdom and life. The Enemy is crafty. Don't be naive. He knows just what will entice you--whether it is sex, drugs, or just someone who seems to listen and care. Wisdom teaches us to be innocent but also careful. Listen to my paraphrase of Proverbs 7:1-5.
Child, hold on to what I say; always keep it with you. Do it and you will live. The most important thing to you should be to live this way. Let them be your constant reminder. Tattoo them on your heart saying, “Wisdom, you’re my sister and insight my closest friend.” They will steer you clear of those whores who would cheat and seduce you with their charms.
Guard your heart and your life. Don't be naive. Be careful out there.
Prayer
"Holy Spirit, guard us and keep our eyes open that we may not be naive or caught off guard when the Enemy comes to distract or lead us astray. Amen."
