Reflection on Proverbs

Adoring God thru Thanks & Praise

Godly living in an ungodly world
is no simple task. But the book
of Proverbs (the Bible’s primer of
practical wisdom) teaches skilful application of truth to everyday life.
Contained in this unique collection
of poetry, parable and wise maxims
are instructions regarding how
to relate to parents and children,
God and government, sin and self.
And Solomon gives readers a divine handle on living to please God.

On Monday, we learn from Prov 3 to
Thank God for Rewards of Wisdom.
On Tuesday, we learn from Prov 8
that God Rewards those who Seek.
On Wed, we learn from Prov 15
that God Hears and Gives Word.
On Thursday we learn from Prov 16
that the Lord Directs Our Plans.
On Friday, we learn from Prov 23
that God Gives Hope for the Future.
On Saturday, we learn from Prov 30
that God Is both Wise and Brilliant.

Let us humble ourselves and pray
and seek His face. Help us O God
be Christ’s disciples who Adore You:
For You are worthy of our Thanks
as You Reward Seekers & Followers;
for You are worthy of our Praise
as You are both Wise & Brilliant;
for You Give Word, Direct Our Plans
as well as Cast Hope for the Future;
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
