This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom
First-Rate Person \u2013 Daily Wisdom
Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 1964 of our Trek, and it\u2019s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote and some wise words from Gramps for today\u2019s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So 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 Judy Garland, and it is: Always be a first-rate version of yourself instead of a second-rate version of someone else.
First-Rate Person


God has created each of us individually as unique imagers of Him. Therefore, God does not desire for us to be someone else. Instead, he desires us to utilize our abilities and talents to further His kingdom and bring glory to Him. It is tempting to try to \u2018keep up with the Joneses\u2019 or to imitate someone well-known or famous, but then we would only be a shadow of someone else instead of the full radiance of ourselves. No one can take your place, and you cannot take anyone else\u2019s place. Nor should you want to. As a unique imager of God, you have a special place within God\u2019s kingdom. Therefore, always strive to be all you can be for God\u2019s glory and let others do the same. God has already equipped you for whatever tasks He has called you to. He will see you through as He did with Joshua when he assumed leadership of the Hebrew nation.



https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Joshua+1%3A6-9andversion=NLT;NIV (Joshua 1:6-9)

\u201cBe strong and courageous, for you are the one who will lead these people to possess all the land I swore to their ancestors I would give them. Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the instructions Moses gave you. Do not deviate from them, turning either to the right or to the left. Then you will be successful in everything you do. Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do. This is my command\u2014be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.\u201d

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