Pondering Proverbs 8:8 — Pro 8:11


“All the words of my mouth are righteous;
there is nothing twisted or crooked in them.
They are all straight to him who understands,
and right to those who find knowledge.
Take my instruction instead of silver,
and knowledge rather than choice gold,
for wisdom is better than jewels,
and all that you may desire cannot compare with her.”

My take: Some think they are wise because they are educated. Others think they are wise because of experience. Education and experience are valuable when they align and compliment Wisdom. Wisdom from the Source, the Creator. Here is a first person perspective from the yet to be fully revealed Son of God. If our worldview is wrong, if our perspective is off center on principle it skews everything. It is the Word and inherent Wisdom that centers everything.

My prayer: Christ, your wisdom is deep, true and near me. Help me not to wonder from it or You. Wisdom or foolishness can come from friend or foe, help me to disern and latch hold of what is good and best.
