Knowledge - Acquaintance with facts, truth or principles, as from study or investigation
Wisdom - The quality or state of being wise; knowledge of what is true or right coupled with just judgment as to action
The book of Proverbs is a storybook full of little nuggets of knowledge. By practically applying what's discovered in each chapter and verse, a student of Proverbs will be able to take knowledge and turn it into wisdom. That's what everyone around us (and each of us, if we are being honest) so desperately needs - knowledge to understand what we should do, and then the wisdom to convert that understanding into action.
So that's going to be our journey through the month of July. Proverbs contains 31 chapters, and the month of July contains 31 days. So we will read one chapter a day, and then share our thoughts with each other. I'll be blogging each day as to what verse or passage stood out to me for that day, and I would like to encourage each of you to share in the comments section of the blog what verse/s caught your eye. I would love to hear what God lays on your heart as you read His word!
By applying what we each discover by diligently studying throughout the month of July, I know we will benefit by being able to make decisions that line up with God's heart for our lives.
