Proverbs 3:13-35 urges all who read it to consider three truths before providing some very practical examples of how to love our neighbours: 1) Wisdom is way more valuable than material stuff! 2) Wisdom isn't just about human decisions and interactions but is actually what God used (and uses) to create (and sustain) our world. 3) Wisdom followed and valued puts Sleep Psychologists out of a job! The father writing Proverbs then finishes this section with some pretty confronting truths: seek and value wisdom, and God absolutely will bless you, but fail to find or value wisdom, and God will detest, curse and mock you (I said it was pretty confronting!). What a good thing it is that the Wise Son of Proverbs (Jesus!) not only forgives us when we treat wisdom with disdain but also gives us His Spirit, enabling us to find and value wisdom!
