PROVERBS 9

THE WISE WELCOME CORRECTION AND GROW IN WISDOM

Wisdom has established a home and set a place for us at her table. We are invited to participate in growing in God’s wisdom and insight.

Foolish people mock wisdom and do not want to gain insight, but the wise welcome correction and become even wiser. The righteous are open to teaching, learning, and growing.

Because God is the source of wisdom, being in awe of God is the place to start gaining wisdom. The pursuit of wisdom leads to life, but the pursuit of nonsense leads to trouble and folly.
