Meditation

Proverbs 1:1-7

The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel: for gaining wisdom and instruction; for understanding words of insight; for receiving instruction in prudent behavior, doing what is right and just and fair; for giving prudence to those who are simple, knowledge and discretion to the young—let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance—for understanding proverbs and parables, the sayings and riddles of the wise.

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Prayer focus

Pray today for wisdom, that through reading and thinking upon the words of scripture, that God may shape your mind and soul.

Pray also for the Convening General Conference of the Global Methodist Church, being held Sept. 20-26 in Costa Rica, that we may become known as people committed to searching and following the widsom of God.
