This was David's confession, a man after God's own heart. He admitted, "So foolish was I, and ignorant." When David wrote, "I was envious at the foolish when I saw the prosperity of the wicked," he revealed that his folly included sin. He recognized his foolishness and emphasized it by adding, "so foolish was I." It was a sinful folly, not just a weakness, but stubborn ignorance. He forgot the harsh reality awaiting the wicked while envying their current success. Are we any wiser than David, claiming perfection or thinking we've overcome all stubbornness? That would be pride! If David was foolish, how should we see ourselves? Look back, believer: think of doubting God despite His faithfulness, or crying "Not so, my Father" when He led you through trials for greater blessings. Recall misreading His ways, believing all seemed against you when He was working for your good. How often have you chosen fleeting pleasure, finding only bitterness? If we truly know our hearts, we recognize our sinful folly. Let's make David's resolution ours: "You'll guide me with your counsel."
