Wisdom From Above: 10 Days in the Book of Proverbsಮಾದರಿ

Lifelong Learning

Wisdom is laced with humility, always willing to listen to correction and ready to hear instruction. Pride is not a rite of maturity; it is the attitude of fools. As long as we live, there is more to discover, more wonder to uncover, and more transformation to take place. If we think we have made it, we will resist opportunities to change instead of embracing them.

When we give our attention to the Lord, worshiping him with our undivided devotion, every opportunity for forgiveness and restoration is a chance to become more like him. We cannot venture to be perfect in life; we are all just trying our very best with whatever we have been given. If we do not have to be experts, we can simply be learners—ever evolving and growing in mercy, grace, joy, peace, patience, and self-control. May we embrace the invitation to continue to cultivate the fruit of the Spirit as long as we live.

Wise God, I devote my heart to you and to learning your ways. I humble myself before you and ask for your compassion to guard my heart and mind in every interaction I have today.
