Thoughts on Today’s Verse
Oh, dear reader, have you ever pondered on the essence of true knowledge? I believe that the fear of the Lord is not a trembling fear but a reverent awe, a gateway to understanding the world around us. When we embrace wisdom and instruction, we open ourselves to endless possibilities for growth and enlightenment. But alas, those who dismiss these treasures as foolishness rob themselves of the beauty of learning. Let us journey together, embracing the fear of the Lord as our guide to the depths of knowledge and wisdom.
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, as we reflect on the wisdom found in the verse ‘The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction,’ we seek Your guidance in our pursuit of learning. Grant us the humility to acknowledge that true knowledge starts with reverence for You. Help us to embrace wisdom and instruction with open hearts and minds, recognizing their value in shaping our understanding of the world. May we approach learning with a spirit of curiosity, eager to grow and deepen our knowledge. Strengthen us to discern between true wisdom and foolishness, and to choose the path of understanding. Empower us, dear Lord, to seek knowledge that aligns with Your will and to use it for Your glory. Amen.
