Left or Right?

I was reading through Ecclesiastes this morning when I came across an interesting concept. Solomon speaks of our hearts inclining to either the left or right hand side:

"The heart of the wise inclines to the right,
but the heart of the fool to the left." - Ecclesiastes 10:2

So which way is your heart leaning today? Left or Right?

He adds a further point later in the same chapter:
"Words from a wise man's mouth are gracious, but a fool is consumed by his own lips." (v.12)

 Deciding whether we are foolish or wise is not as simple as it seems. Perhaps the best way to get an honest answer is to ask your loved ones :)

“Christ never meant that we were to remain children in intelligence: on the contrary. He told us to be not only 'as harmless as doves', but also 'as wise as serpents'. He wants a child's heart, but a grown-up's head. He wants us to be simple, single-minded, affectionate, and teachable, as good children are; but He also wants every bit of intelligence we have to be alert at its job, and in first-class fighting trim.” - C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
