Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2070

Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2070 of our Trek. Establishing good habits is imperative for living a Godly life and one habit I have practiced nearly every day for the past 45+ years of my adult life is to read the chapter in the book of Proverbs that corresponds to the day of the month. This single habit has been the catalyst for gaining wisdom and creating a living legacy. Adopting this habit can do the same for your life. The realization that God\u2019s Wisdom is the only true wisdom drives me to seek God\u2019s wisdom each day, and there is no better way to do this than to meditate on God\u2019s book of Wisdom. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Today I will read Proverbs 30.
The Book of Proverbs - Chapter 30

The Sayings of Agur

30\xa0The sayings of Agur son of Jakeh contain this message.[a]

I am weary, O God;
I am weary and worn out, O God.[b]
2\xa0I am too stupid to be human,
and I lack common sense.
3\xa0I have not mastered human wisdom,
nor do I know the Holy One.

4\xa0Who but God goes up to heaven and comes back down?
Who holds the wind in his fists?
Who wraps up the oceans in his cloak?
Who has created the whole wide world?
What is his name\u2014and his son\u2019s name?
Tell me if you know!

5\xa0Every word of God proves true.
He is a shield to all who come to him for protection.
6\xa0Do not add to his words,
or he may rebuke you and expose you as a liar.

7\xa0O God, I beg two favors from you;
let me have them before I die.
8\xa0First, help me never to tell a lie.
Second, give me neither poverty nor riches!
Give me just enough to satisfy my needs.
9\xa0For if I grow rich, I may deny you and say, \u201cWho is the\xa0Lord?\u201d
And if I am too poor, I may steal and thus insult God\u2019s holy name.

10\xa0Never slander a worker to the employer,
or the person will curse you, and you will pay for it.

11\xa0Some people curse their father
and do not thank their mother.
12\xa0They are pure in their own eyes,
but they are filthy and unwashed.
13\xa0They look proudly around,
casting disdainful glances.
14\xa0They have teeth like swords
and fangs like knives.
They devour the poor from the earth
and the needy from among humanity.

15\xa0The leech has two suckers
that cry out, \u201cMore, more!\u201d[
