Psalm 111:1-10 Hallelujah! I will give thanks to the LORD with all my heart in the company of decent people and in the congregation. The LORD'S deeds are spectacular. They should be studied by all who enjoy them. His work is glorious and majestic. His righteousness continues forever. He has made his miracles unforgettable. The LORD is merciful and compassionate. He provides food for those who fear him. He always remembers his promise. He has revealed the power of his works to his people by giving them the lands of other nations as an inheritance. His works are done with truth and justice. All his guiding principles are trustworthy. They last forever and ever. They are carried out with truth and decency. He has sent salvation to his people. He has ordered that his promise should continue forever. His name is holy and terrifying. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom. Good sense is shown by everyone who follows God's guiding principles. His praise continues forever.

Proverbs 24:3-4 With wisdom a house is built. With understanding it is established. With knowledge its rooms are filled with every kind of riches, both precious and pleasant.

Luke 11:10-12 Everyone who asks will receive. The one who searches will find, and for the person who knocks, the door will be opened. "If your child asks you, his father, for a fish, would you give him a snake instead? Or if your child asks you for an egg, would you give him a scorpion?

  Yesterday I sent out an afternoon extra edition sharing the wise words of a young friend.

 

“LADIES…. you have the same body parts every other woman has. He can easily get that somewhere else. What he can’t get is someone who has that unique personality and that LOVE only you can display. That heart that's whole, kind, loving, caring and full of loyalty. Your personality, your heart posture is what will keep that man, not your body.”  Kaitlan Reeves

 

  Kaitlan has and continues to work hard at professional standing. She recently completed a master’s degree while working fulltime in her career field. More importantly, though very busy, she does not neglect seeking her Master’s wisdom. As to which course is most difficult, possibly later she will write and tell us?

  Due to the clock, these hours most of my friends are young. However, regardless of age my most valuable friends are those that continually seek the treasure of wisdom. It is even better when they courageously share the good judgment they have personally gained.

  The greatest source of wisdom is God’s Word, for the Author is Omni-Wise!  EBB4

 

PS: “wisdom” is 234 times in 222 verses in God’s Word (KJV). For those interested in making a serious effort to gain true wisdom, upon your request I will send the full list of complete “wisdom” verses in English KJV, KJV+, MKJV, ASV, CEV, ESV, GW, ISV, LITV, WEBSTER, or YLT.
