Proverbs 6-9

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. For through me your days will be many, and years will be added to your life. If you are wise, your wisdom will reward you; if you are a mocker, you alone will suffer."

Book of Proverbs talks about wisdom. What it is, what it does, how to get it, etc. The world may look at Christians, like us, and think that we are foolish - going to church more than once a week, praying, reading the bible, tithing, etc. At one morning prayer, pastor Kim said that if there is no judgment and no heaven, Christians are the most foolish people. If life here on earth is all we have, we should live it up doing whatever we want to do. However, we know and believe that there is heaven and hell and reward and judgment. Soon Jesus is coming back to take us to heaven where our reward is.

If that is what we believe, let us live with the fear of the Lord. Our speech, conducts, and decisions should reflect our fear of the Lord. Let us ask the Holy Spirit to strengthen us so that we will be able to face this day with wisdom and discernment from God.
