The sadness of leaving the Psalms today is replaced with awe at how very simple and profound Wisdom really is! Look at Proverbs 1:1-7:
1 The proverbs (truths obscurely expressed, maxims, and parables) of Solomon son of David, king of Israel: 2 That people may know skillful and godly Wisdom and instruction, discern and comprehend the words of understanding and insight, 3 Receive instruction in wise dealing and the discipline of wise thoughtfulness, righteousness, justice, and integrity, 4 That prudence may be given to the simple, and knowledge, discretion, and discernment to the youth— 5 The wise also will hear and increase in learning, and the person of understanding will acquire skill and attain to sound counsel [so that he may be able to steer his course rightly]— 6 That people may understand a proverb and a figure of speech or an enigma with its interpretation, and the words of the wise and their dark sayings or riddles. 7 The reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord is the beginning and the principal and choice part of knowledge [its starting point and its essence]; but fools despise skillful and godly Wisdom, instruction, and discipline.
Not one of the "self-help" books that have ever been written can even begin to compare with the results you can have by meditating daily on the Wisdom found in this Book! It takes diligence and commitment to spend time meditating on the Word of God every day, but that is TRULY what is needful in order to stand out as a carrier of Light (Joshua 1:8)! In these days, when common sense is rarely to be found, operating with the Mind of Christ will cause the born again, Spirit-filled believer to stand out as a beacon! THIS is what is needed for people to come to YOU and ask about that hope (1 Peter 3:15)! THEN you can share the Gospel and they will TRUST that you are telling them the TRUTH! AMEN!

Shalom in Him!
