3. Good evening Don. According to God’s Holy Word, the beginning of wisdom is the “fear of the Lord.”

   Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

   Proverbs 1:29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord:

   Proverbs 2:5 Then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God.

   Proverbs 8:13 The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

   Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

   Great post Don!

   Thanks Don for this true statement for the day. It is too bad I am normally reading stupid young-adult fiction recently. I am listening to Howard Zinn’s, People’s History of the United States. Good listening here.

   1. Thanks for the reblog 😀

5. Truly, both work like magic. I used to do the former a lot but I’m doing more of the latter now…It’s amazing what you can learn from other people (especially if you listen more)

   1. Very much agreed 😀
