Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2091

Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2091 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 20
The Book of Proverbs - Chapter 20
20\xa0Wine produces mockers; alcohol leads to brawls.
Those led astray by drink cannot be wise.

2\xa0The king\u2019s fury is like a lion\u2019s roar;
to rouse his anger is to risk your life.

3\xa0Avoiding a fight is a mark of honor;
only fools insist on quarreling.

4\xa0Those too lazy to plow in the right season
will have no food at the harvest.

5\xa0Though good advice lies deep within the heart,
a person with understanding will draw it out.

6\xa0Many will say they are loyal friends,
but who can find one who is truly reliable?

7\xa0The godly walk with integrity;
blessed are their children who follow them.

8\xa0When a king sits in judgment, he weighs all the evidence,
distinguishing the bad from the good.

9\xa0Who can say, \u201cI have cleansed my heart;
I am pure and free from sin\u201d?

10\xa0False weights and unequal measures[a]\u2014
the\xa0Lord\xa0detests double standards of every kind.

11\xa0Even children are known by the way they act,
whether their conduct is pure, and whether it is right.

12\xa0Ears to hear and eyes to see\u2014
both are gifts from the\xa0Lord.

13\xa0If you love sleep, you will end in poverty.
Keep your eyes open, and there will be plenty to eat!

14\xa0The buyer haggles over the price, saying, \u201cIt\u2019s worthless,\u201d
then brags about getting a bargain!

15\xa0Wise words are more valuable
than much gold and many rubies.
