Reading – Proverbs 3
Highlight Verse:
“Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil.”
Proverbs 3:7 NLT
I have taught many a child who is eager to answer each of my small group discussion questions, ready to show how much he/she knows.
I’ve been that kid/adult many times myself.
How many times do I need to remind myself to get back to basics?
Here’s the basics in regards to wisdom:
- My wisdom is foolishness compared to God’s.
- It is wiser to fear God than to know a lot about Him.
- All the knowledge in the world is useless if I don’t turn away from evil.
I’ll just keep it that simple – because it is.
Do you struggle with pride about how much of the Bible you know (like I do)?
How do you remind yourself to fear the Lord and turn away from evil?
