The Beginning of Wisdom

Scripture Proverbs 9:10 “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

Observation: To begin to understand who God is and how powerful He truly is should bring fear to us. We have no right to question Him, but only obey His commands. He is God and though He loves us, as He has shown, He deserves are complete respect and obedience.

Application: I speak to God every morning, but I don’t grasp who I am talking to all of the time. He is the creator of all things, including myself and I should be humbled to be in His presence. I should always be grateful and humble and when I request anything from Him it should be in His will not mine.

Prayer: My Lord and Master. Help me understand your will for this life and that my life might be a song you sing. I’m here only to serve you, guide me on how I can do this to please you.
