Seek Wisdom - Proverbs 26

S - Proverbs 26:12 There is more hope for fools
than for people who think they are wise.
O - Some people are just foolish and there are others that think they are wiser than they really are. This verse is saying that being a fool has more hope than the other. This is because once a fool discovers that he is a fool, he may change. However, the person that thinks he is wise will never listen to anyone else to discover that they are not as wise as he thinks and therefore will never change.
A - I need to submit my ego and listen to others that God has put around me. By doing this I will not be foolish in thinking I am wise and in essence miss out on a lot of wisdom that I don't already have. Admitting that I don't know something is difficult, but not admitting I don't know something can be evenmore dangerous as I make decisions and live life in a way that is foolish. I will also look to God daily for His wisdom and I know that He can even give a more perfect answer than any wise man on earth can give me because He knows all.
P - God, I praise you and thank you for all that you have done for my family and me. I praise and thank you for your goodness and for your Son that you sent and sacrificed for us. I ask you today for wisdom. I want to do and say and act in a way that is wise and uplifts people and turns their eyes to you. I'm sorry for all the times that I have been foolish in not listening to you or to those that you have put in my life. Bless and heal my family and me today.
