This morning Jesus spoke to me as I read the introduction to the Book of Proverbs. I read about God’s desire for us to spend our talents as best we can for Him. I paused, looked up, and asked, “Lord, how do you want me to do this for you?” Do you believe God can still answer questions immediately? He did in this case. The next words I read were “teach people how to attain wisdom.” Here begins the blog Proverbs for Today.
Proverbs 1:1-7
Read Proverbs to:
attain wisdom and discipline
understand words of insight
acquire a prudent and disciplined life
do what is right and just and fair
gain knowledge and discretion
add to your learning
guide your discerning
to understand proverbs (the sayings of the wise)
and to understand parables (the riddles of the wise).
Only a fool would despise wisdom and discipline.
Fear God, and start the journey to true knowledge.
