There’s an ancient saying that all wisdom comes from YHWH.

Whether you call that God, the Universe, Great Spirit I’m not here to judge. What’s true is that the fundamental principles that guide this existence apply universally to all beings– their benefits to the one that keeps them and their consequences to the one that breaks them.

The Challenge.

For the past two months my morning routine has started of with a “thanks for waking me this morning, Father,” followed by reading a chapter from the book of Proverbs.

Since there are 31 chapters and 30-ish days in a month, the chapters correspond very well with whichever day of the month it is. I just double up when I get to the last chapter or so depending on the month.

December lines up nicely with its 31 days and it looks like January will be good for my OCD as well.

The Benefits.

Of course, a challenge like this is beneficial simply by the fact that it’s another motivation to get in the Word more.

I’ve gained so many insights about life– business, relationships, people in general– one of the biggest being that I need to practice keeping my mouth shut in most situations.

Do this challenge a couple times and you’ll get what I mean!

One of the less obvious things I’ve gained is a little bit of consistency under my belt because if you haven’t noticed, this blog has been everything but that. But I’m not gonna judge myself for that either.

The Invitation.

I personally invite you to join me on this wisdom challenge tomorrow.

We’ll start the year off right with the first chapter of Proverbs and persevere all the way through.

Let’s gain some wisdom together, and some understanding to go along with it.
