Written down so we’ll know how to live well and right, to understand what life means and where it’s going; A manual for living, for learning what’s right and just and fair;
To teach the inexperienced the ropes and give our young people a grasp on reality.
There’s something here also for seasoned men and women, still a thing or two for the experienced to learn— Fresh wisdom to probe and penetrate, the rhymes and reasons of wise men and women.
Start with God—the first step in learning is bowing down to God...
Proverbs 1:1-7a The Message
When we endeavor to learn, don't we want to learn from the best? According to 2nd Chronicles 9:22, NKJV, King Solomon surpassed ALL the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom. That would make his writings the best, wouldn't it? Read it again, slowly... line upon line...

The answers to every question we have are found in God's Word. If you're looking for a place to start, humble yourself to God, seek Him first, and read a chapter of Proverbs every day. I don't think it's coincidental that there are 31 chapters.
Prayer:
Father,
Thank You for Your answers to our many questions. Birth in us a new desire to learn, to glean wisdom from Your Word. Open Your Word wide to our understanding, in Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
