September 24
Introduction
Everyone is invited to respond to Wisdom’s invitation and to follow her instructions and search for knowledge.
Scripture Reading
Proverbs 8:1-36
Today’s Key Verse: Proverbs 8:12
“I am Wisdom, and I have insight; I have knowledge and judgment.”
Reflect
Wisdom is personified as a woman (verses 1-3) and as being present with God at the beginning of creation (verses 22-31). What was her role? Reread verses 11‒21. How does Wisdom describe herself? What does she do? According to verses 32‒36, what is the value of following Wisdom’s advice?
Pray
All-wise God, open my ears to hear and give me the desire to respond to Wisdom’s invitation to seek after your will and the true knowledge that comes from you. Such knowledge is truly more precious than jewels. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Proverbs 9:1-18: Wisdom and stupidity are compared regarding what they offer.
