When reading Proverbs, I envision myself as a princess in God’s kingdom courts receiving divine wisdom from His heart to mine. Proverbs is a unique treasury of God-breathed principles and a wellspring of wisdom for my soul to soak up like the sun. As a wife, mother and woman in ministry I desperately need God’s wisdom!
Proverbs 2:1-6 (NLT) reads: My child, listen to what I say, and treasure my commands. Tune your ears to wisdom, and concentrate on understanding. Cry out for insight, and ask for understanding. Search for them as you would for silver; seek them like hidden treasures. Then you will understand what it means to fear the Lord, and you will gain knowledge of God. For the Lord grants wisdom!
