A Well Built Life Filled With Beautiful Things - Ruminating in the Word of God

The Lord is awe-inspiring, fearsome, fascinating, intriguing, and majestic in his radiant splendor: breathtaking! Here is what I saohim today anwhat came to my heart and mind in Proverbs 24:3-4,

"By wisdom a house is built,
    and through understanding it is established;
through knowledge its rooms are filled
    with rare and beautiful treasures."

This is such a beautiful portrayal of the value of wisdom for those who pursue and obtain it. Who cannot relate to the beauty of a house that is built, established and filled with rare and beautiful treasures?

The house this speaks of is, of course, each of our own lives.

Some lives are well built and established with rare and beautiful treasures while others are simply bereft of these. When it comes to things like meaning, purpose, fulfillment and satisfaction in life, it is wisdom from the Lord that brings these.

Wisdom is such an important thing in each one of our lives!

Anything of the Lord capture your heart from Scripture today? Share what moved you about him from your Bible reading today. I'd love to hear from you!

If you have someone you would like to receive these ruminations, send me their email address. I'm happy to add them to the list. If you are receiving this and would like to be removed from the list, just reply and let me know.
