Proverbs 8:5 “Understand prudence, you naive people; and gain an understanding heart, you foolish ones.”
Proverbs 5:10 “Strangers will drain your resources, and your earnings will end up in a foreigner’s house.”
Proverbs often contradict one another, as any reader soon discovers. The sagacity that advises us to look before we leap promptly warns us that if we hesitate we are lost; that absence makes the heart grow fonder, but out of sight, out of mind. Leo Rosten
Proverbs 3:5-6 NASB
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

I must really love laying on the floor.
I have the biggest smile on my face right now. Isn't it amazing how after such a rough day, the smallest things can bring you happiness?

10 July 2020 - setting sun sparkles through tree cover. Rays reflect back from a mirrored building, light falling in unexpected places. Wisdom whispers:
Listen, for I am about to tell you of unparalleled excellence and beauty;
what I am about to say will set things right.
7 I will only speak the truth;
I despise evil, so it will not pass through my lips.
8 Everything I say promotes justice;
not one word is crooked, and nothing is distorted.
9 Each and every word is straight talk to perceptive people,
upright and honest to knowledge-seekers.
10 Accept my correction as being more valuable than your prized possession,
authentic knowledge more valuable than pure gold.
11 You see, no gem is more precious than Lady Wisdom—
your most extravagant desire doesn’t come close to her.
Good counsel is mine, and also true wisdom.
I am understanding, and strength belongs to me.
love those who love me;
those who search hard for me will find me.
18 Riches and honor are the benefit of following me;
so are lasting wealth and justice.
19 My reward is better than gold, even the purest gold;
and my profit is greater than the highest quality silver.
20 I follow the way of right living.
Follow me along the path to find justice;
21 I’m ready to meet those who love me, bestow true riches upon them,
and fill up their lives until their treasuries overflow.
