Book Description
Excerpt from The Wisdom of God's Fools Studies in Spiritual Sagacity It is to the credit Of Naaman that he heeded the good advice Of his servants. Proud man that he was, he bowed his stubborn will and obeyed the command of Elisha. He did precisely what the prophet told him to do; he bathed himself not once or twice or three times, but seven times in the river Jordan, and his flesh came as the flesh Of a little child. Naaman became a fool for God's sake and the wisdom of God was demonstrated in the cure which followed. What had seemed Naaman's wisdom was Naaman's folly, and what had seemed foolishness in Naaman's eyes was in reality the deepest wisdom.
