Choosing Wisdom: Lessons from the Five Virgins

Matthew 25:1,4 tells of ten virgins who took lamps to meet the bridegroom. The wise brought extra oil, while the foolish did not. In the same way, serious Christians deny themselves daily. They pray, fast, study Scripture, and serve in evangelism. Others grow complacent, choosing comfort over commitment. Those who choose wisdom gain eternal life. Those who choose foolishness face judgment. Your daily choices matter for your future. Decide today to fill your lamp with oil. Live with devotion, sacrifice, and faithfulness to follow Christ.
