Words of Wisdom ~ part two

Today marks the halfway point in my 31 day challenge. I am committing to read the book of Proverbs a chapter each day until all 31 have been read. Here's what I've learned this last week.

Good teaching comes from good learning - and proverbs has more to say to students than to teachers. Proverbs is concerned with the learning of wisdom. The book makes it clear that there are no good alternatives to learning wisdom. We are either becoming wise learners or refusing to learn and becoming foolish failures. Proverbs encourages us to make the right choice. The wise and the foolish are often contrasted in Proverbs. The characteristics, reputation and results of each are worth knowing if wisdom is our goal.

Blessings
