September · Day 246 of 365
Listen and Learn
Wisdom & Discernment
Scripture
“Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.”
— Proverbs 3:13 (KJV)
Reflection
Wisdom is not the same as intelligence. Proverbs 3:13 reminds us, "Happy is the man that findeth wisdom…" Wisdom is the right use of truth in real life. It listens before it speaks. It pauses before it reacts. It chooses long obedience over short relief. Today, ask the Lord to help you walk wisely in the very ordinary decisions of the day.
Prayer
God of all wisdom, quiet my mind enough to hear You. Let Your Word shape my decisions today. Amen.
Thought for the Day
How can I listen better today — to God and to people?
