Proverbs 24:3-4 “By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures.” You and I are blessed beyond measure as we realize our Savior is at the core of our lives. Without Him, though judged seemingly all is fine, nothing is fine. Life is led like an epicurean and death will be the saddest. We, knowing and wanting a tight relationship with our Heavenly Father, continually pray for lives of wisdom so our lives on this earth and eternally will be filled with rare and beautiful treasures. Thank God for your priceless gifts.

Proverbs 23:24 “The father of a righteous man has great joy; he who has a wise son delights in him.” Who of us took a course in parenting; however, no parent is excused from A+ parenting. Where then do parents gain parenting skills? Answer: from their parents-either they learn what to do or what not to do. When one parents with intended wisdom and includes the Greatest Teacher, odds are–pride (though not always, we still live in the world) of their children will be the result. Righteous children make joyful parents. Have a great weekend.

Proverbs 23:23 “Buy the truth and do not sell it, get wisdom, discipline and understanding.” It is common for real estate investors to buy a property, fix it up and sell it. That is referred to as flipping a property. Solomon could have written–when you get or buy truth, don’t ever get rid of it–as a matter of fact, he did write that. And he wisely also wrote–do the same for wisdom, discipline and understanding. Search for these 4 pieces, make them a part of your personal portfolio and never let go.

Proverbs 23:22 “Listen to your father, who gave you life, and do not despise your mother when she is old.” God has created everything perfectly including family. Some have distorted God’s perfect plan with their self-made concept ignoring God’s perfection. Fathers and mothers are to perform a roll of training and teaching and living as God intends and children are to respect their parents. Both parents and children have a God-given responsibility. When that responsibility is recognized joy results. When that responsibility is ignored only sadness is the result.

Proverbs 23:18 “There is surely a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off.” Hope is a wonderful word. A confident assurance your faith, like the confident trust a child enjoys while being raised in a family where security and comfort are enjoyed without even realizing the joy he basks in. You and I can live with that comfort and peace without even understanding the wonderful present and future our Heavenly Father provides in the little word of hope.
