GEM from HEAVEN
As we go through life we search for or think we know the right way of doing things. Left unto ourselves, we really do not know. We may get some things right but it really is a hit and miss proposition. Most often when we do learn it’s usually too late. How do we get off to a great start and have a great finish when it comes to this life?
Here is the GEM: we need to fear the Lord. We are to hold His wisdom of life in high esteem. You see, our wisdom will eventually lead to eternal death. We may have a great start, but our finish or end will be terrible. On the other hand, those who listen and obey the Lord’s wisdom, no matter what stage of life, can have a great start and a great finish to enter into the eternal heavens with Him.
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge; Fools despise wisdom and instruction. "For the waywardness of the naive will kill them, And the complacency of fools will destroy them. "But he who listens to me shall live securely And will be at ease from the dread of evil."
Proverbs 1:7, 32-33
