F...E...A...R...to wisdom!

In the Bible there is a book called "Proverbs" or truly "sentences of wisdom."  Today I was reading in the "sentences of wisdom" and it was speaking of wisdom as a person.

Some of the characteristics of wisdom as Proverbs declares are:

-  truth 

-  justice

-  prudence 

-  anti evil 

-  anti pride and arrogance 

I have to be completely honest; FEAR of GOD has always been a tough one for me to swallow.  That is until I had an understanding that "fear" really means reverence or respect.

So how does one get wisdom?  In Proverbs 9:10 states, "The F...E...A...R of God is the beginning of wisdom."    When revere/respect God we are living within wisdom and the characteristics described above.

For our move to Haiti this means in everything!  Right now, Christi and I are in the midst of truly learning what revering God is about. 

Pray that in each step of the way we all learn to revere God in trusting Him with all the outcomes of our everyday life, whether it is our moving to Haiti or maybe for you it is trusting Him with your financial future.
