This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom
A Small Bundle \u2013 Daily Wisdom
Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 1797 of our Trek, and it\u2019s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote along with some wise words from Gramps for today\u2019s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. We are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before.

Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today\u2019s trek as we increase Wisdom and Create a Living Legacy. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2016%3A16andversion=NLT (Proverbs 16:16) How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver! If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let\u2019s jump right in with today\u2019s nugget:

Today\u2019s quote is from Benjamin Franklin, and it is: A person wrapped up in themselves makes a very small bundle.
A Small Bundle


If you have spent much time with a self-absorbed person, you understand the meaning of this quote today. When a person is always attempting to promote themselves or if they are always talking about themselves, your perspective of such a person is diminished. Although a person like this may appear to come off as confident or arrogant, the underlying reason is that they lack true peace and confidence in themselves. To make up for their lack of confidence, they swing to the other end of the pendulum and go overboard in making everything centered on them. For a Christ-follower, we need to realize that all we are, or ever hope to be, comes from God, and our confidence rests in Him. We can then be confident yet humble. We can be at peace amid the turmoil. As imagers of God, we can take the spotlight off of ourselves and let that light shine through us to the Lord of Heaven\u2019s armies.



https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ephesians%201%3A18andversion=NLT (Ephesians 1:18)

I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called\u2014his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance.

As you ponder this nugget of wisdom for yourself, please encourage your friends and family to join us and then come along tomorrow for another day of \u2018Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.\u2019
