Proverbs 8

What stood out today:
6 Listen, for I have worthy things to say; I open my lips to speak what is right.
30 Then I was the craftsman at his side. I was filled with delight day after day, rejoicing always in his presence,
31 rejoicing in his whole world and delighting in mankind.
32 "Now then, my sons, listen to me; blessed are those who keep my ways.
33 Listen to my instruction and be wise; do not ignore it.
34 Blessed is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my doors, waiting at my doorway.
35 For whoever finds me finds life and receives favor from the LORD.

My response: Jesus, I love when you reveal yourself in your scripture. You are the craftsman at Abba’s side. You have been with the Father forever. You speak wisdom for us to know and understand. You know and can teach successful dependant obedience. Here you are again offering Yourself, and in You is Life. Its interesting that at the top of my journal is Proverbs 8:32-34. In verse 32, the beginning sets us up as sons and daughters and verse 35 is the outcome - when we find You, we find LIFE!
