🕊️ Does not wisdom call?

Does not understanding raise her voice?

On the heights beside the way,

at the crossroads she takes her stand;

beside the gates in front of the town,

at the entrance of the portals she cries aloud:

“To you, O men, I call,

and my cry is to the children of man.

O simple ones, learn prudence;

O fools, learn sense.

Hear, for I will speak noble things,

and from my lips will come what is right,

for my mouth will utter truth;

wickedness is an abomination to my lips.

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. 🕊️

🕊️ The LORD possessed me at the beginning of his work, the first of his acts of old.

Ages ago I was set up, at the first, before the beginning of the earth.

When there were no depths I was brought forth,

when there were no springs abounding with water.

Before the mountains had been shaped,

before the hills, I was brought forth,

before he had made the earth with its fields,

or the first of the dust of the world.

When he established the heavens, I was there;

when he drew a circle on the face of the deep,

when he made firm the skies above,

when he established the fountains of the deep,

when he assigned to the sea its limit,

so that the waters might not transgress his command,

when he marked out the foundations of the earth,

then I was beside him, like a master workman,

and I was daily his delight,

rejoicing before him always,

rejoicing in his inhabited world

and delighting in the children of man. 🕊️

Proverbs 8:1-11, 22-31

Good morning Father!

Thank You for this day!

Thank You for my life!

Thank You for my sweet bride!

Thank You for my precious daughter!

All that I am and possess, it is because of You O Lord,

Thank You Father!

All my words are like the dust of the earth, but the Words of the Lord are like buried treasures.

There are no maps to guide me to find the treasure. I must receive it from the creator of this world, from the magnificent being who created me and gave me breath.

God’s Spirit is within me, working through me, carefully guiding me on my life journey.

Father, I raise my hands up to You this day and Praise You for my life and all that You have made in me and through me.

Help me O Lord, to cast off the sin that trips me up, and help me to reject the sinful nature, which battles with my mind and my spirit daily. Guide my lips when I speak the words in my heart, that they may lift up those who hear me.

May Your Spirit shine brightly in and through me, in all I say and do this day, in Jesus’ name, Amen!
