Proverbs 8
Today's reading is a wonderful bit of poetry that involves the personification of Wisdom.
It ends as follows:
4 Blessed is the man who listens to me,
watching daily at my doors,
waiting at my doorway.
35 For whoever finds me finds life
and receives favor from the LORD.
36 But whoever fails to find me harms himself;
all who hate me love death."
My prayer is the my daily pursuit of truth does not end at knowledge, but wisdom. Here's a link to an interesting discussion of the difference.
