3 Things

There are three things that matter deeply to the Lord when it comes to wisdom and understanding. The Proverbs are filled with nuggets of truth and words to help each of us live life the way that the Lord intended. In Proverbs 2, the benefits of wisdom are not only revealed, the Lord describes how to attain this wisdom. Listening, asking, and seeking provide a simple path to understanding this wisdom that comes from the Lord.

Now those three things I mentioned can be found in verses 7 and 8:

He grants a treasure of common sense to the honest.
    He is a shield to those who walk with integrity.
 He guards the paths of the just
    and protects those who are faithful to him.

He offers a treasure of common sense the honest. Good to know since common sense isn’t so common these days. He is a shield to the people that walk with integrity. Doing the right things at the right time for the right reasons will always cover you. And lastly, he guards the path and protects those who are faithful. Honesty, integrity and faithfulness will preserve you, protect you and provide for you each and every day. These 3 things will always matter. Take a moment today and read this entire Proverb. Gaining wisdom and understanding will serve you well as you serve the Lord!
