Wisdom 4 Life

As I am sure many of you have read this morning in the One Year Bible reading the Proverbs have an awesome purpose of transforming our lives...

“These are the proverbs of Solomon, David’s son, king of Israel.
Their purpose is to teach people wisdom and discipline, to help them understand the insights of the wise. Their purpose is to teach people to live disciplined and successful lives, to help them do what is right, just, and fair. These proverbs will give insight to the simple, knowledge and discernment to the young. Let the wise listen to these proverbs and become even wiser. Let those with understanding receive guidance by exploring the meaning in these proverbs and parables, the words of the wise and their riddles.”
(Proverbs 1:1-6 NLT-SE)

1. To teach us wisdom and discipline...
2. To help us understand the insights wise people have...
3. To help us do the right things...
4. To give insight when we don't get it naturally...
5. To give knowledge and discernment to young people (like me)...
6. To give more wisdom to the wise...
7. To help people give guidance to others...

WoW - meditate on that... I would encourage each of us to increase our daily spiritual diet with a proverb a day... there are 31 of them so we can do one a day and on 30 day months do two on the 30th... it is just a suggestion not a command - we may never track it on accountability cards and such but I think our lives and ministries will reflect it over the course of time...

Happy New Year...
