He calls out to all
men, from everywhere, he shouts out. Wisdom awaits those who seek, those who
shall stop at nothing but the real deal.
At the end of the
year…I shall ask myself, have I gained understanding, reason, knowledge or
found wisdom. And in these things wisdom manifests. In the fear of God it
begins. In the hearing of reproach it grows. In pride in withers. In
righteousness it prospers. In truth wisdom is sustained. In a good wife a man
finds his prize, and there is not a greater gift that man gets on earth than a
woman who fears the Lord.
In the shadow of the
almighty the righteous find refuge, and there is no fear in his presence. A
wise man will slowly but steadily become rich, and his blessing the Lord only
adds. So the one who plans and the one who waits on God, they are weighed on the
same scale, but the Lord makes the final decision.
Disgusting in the
eyes of both man and God, are the unjust judge, the false witness, the wicked,
the fool and the haggard who becomes poor. Let them drink to their own
destruction, as they struggle to forget their worries. The mocker will also
follow along and may find companion in the arms of a bitter woman.
The ruthless and
shrewd become rich. So does the righteous man whose inheritance generations
share. The work of your hands, the gift that God gave you and pleasant words,
they make the path of a man smoother. Delight then in knowledge of purpose and
let understanding lead your way.
Too wonderful is
soaring as the eagle, cunningness of the snake, ruthlessness of the ship on the
ocean and how amazing are man`s ways with a woman. Too hard to behold too
difficult to deal with, as a servant seated on the throne, a satisfied fool, an
unloved woman and a servant who dispossess her mistress.
A wise man will dine
with kings, and so will a gifted person. The rich may strut like a cock, the
Godly are fearless as a lion, a fool may stumble as a male goat, but like a
king with his army, is a man who has God at heart.
Wisdom is, knowledge
of God. And the reward to a man is a Godly wife. So there are three things
important to a man, GOD, who gives him wisdom and with wisdom a man may become
wealthy, and lastly, a God fearing woman, who he gets as a reward for all his faithfulness.
And for a woman, these things are noble, Fear of God that births wisdom, hard
work that builds a household and her reward in life, a man who loves her truly.
Happy new year, hope
you gained wisdom the previous year.
