Advice from Proverbs

 Advice from Proverbs

In the book of Proverbs we read,

"Get wisdom, get understanding; 

do not forget my words or swerve from them. 

Do not forsake wisdom, 

and she will protect you;

 love her, 

and she will watch over you. 

Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. 

Though it cost all you have, 

get understanding. 

Esteem her, 

and she will exalt you; 

embrace her, 

and she will honour you. 

She will set a garland of grace on your head 

and present you with a crown of splendour." 

                                                                  Proverbs 4:5-9.

Sadly too many people who claim to be Christians do not follow the advice here in Proverbs 4:5-9.

Their wisdom and understanding comes from the world around them. 

As believers in God. As believers in Christ Jesus, we should be looking to the scriptures for wisdom and understanding.

Thus the question become are you living by the wisdom of the world or the wisdom of God?

Please think about it.
