Proverbs 19:20-21 (NKJV) 20 Listen to counsel and receive instruction, That you may be wise in your latter days. 21 There are many plans in a man’s heart, Nevertheless the Lord’s counsel – that will stand.
Have you ever looked back at your life and wished that you had listened to counsel or instruction given by someone who knew better than you did about something?
I know I do. And I’m sure we all do from time to time.
Wisdom comes by way of those who pass it down to us, as well as being gained through life’s experiences.
The easiest way, by far, to gain insight and understanding, is by way of those around us who have walked through things that have taught them valuable lessons, and are willing to pass it along to us.
What’s cool is that this can be from people we know personally, or it can be through the words penned in scripture, inspired by the Holy Spirit.
The wisdom to be gleaned in either of these two ways is invaluable, and it can literally change our lives if we heed and follow those words.
The book of Proverbs is rich with insights, wisdom and understanding that’s in little bite-sized pieces that are easy to digest and understand. So, we encourage you to take those beautiful nuggets and gobble them up like candy!
As we digest them, God will increase our understanding, and the path of our life will be forever altered.
