Get Wisdom!

The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom, and whatever you get, get insight. (Prov 4:7 ESV) This verse has always made me chuckle a bit. Then, Doug read it out loud this morning - and both of us read it in ESV - and I had to chuckle again. The ESV just puts it so, well, bluntly! But, there is also a lot to it. I want this to be my goal - to seek wisdom from whatever source God wishes to bring it to me. And, as I go along, to pray that the Lord gives me the discernment and insight to know what is wisdom and what is folly. How I long to be wise! Lord, please help me get wisdom with your guidance, that it may be true wisdom. And, may I have the insight necessary to utilize that wisdom appropriately!
