I've started reading the book of Proverbs with the Good News translation. I like reading with this translation because it explains things very simply so that I can understand it better.
I've been seeing a theme throughout the book of Proverbs so far.. that wisdom/righteousness leads to life, and wickedness/foolishness leads to death. If that's the case, I want to have wisdom.
One verse in particular that left the deepest impression on my heart was Proverbs 12:1: "Any who love knowledge want to be told when they are wrong. It is stupid to hate being corrected." I never want to be in a place in my life where I am not teachable or ready to be molded and refined by the Holy Spirit. As my blog name suggests, I am still a "work in progress" - always requiring sharpening, molding, and refining to be more like my Father in heaven.
