I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2200 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. \xa0 In today\u2019s Wisdom Nugget, I\u2019m delighted to continue our journey through the profound wisdom found in the book of Proverbs. Today, we\u2019re diving into Proverbs 8:22-31 from the New Living Translation. So, fasten your hiking boots, and together, we\u2019ll explore the wisdom of creation in these verses. Pause\u2026 In Proverbs 8:22-31, we encounter a majestic portrayal of wisdom as being present at the very inception of creation. These verses invite us to contemplate the divine wisdom that underlies the universe. Verse 22-24: \u201cThe Lord formed me from the beginning, before he created anything else. I was appointed in ages past, at the very first, before the earth began. I was born before the oceans were created, before the springs bubbled forth their waters.\u201d These verses open with a profound statement that the Lord formed wisdom from the very beginning, even before the creation of the universe. Wisdom was appointed in ages past, before the earth and oceans came into existence. This paints a picture of wisdom as an eternal and foundational principle of the cosmos. Pause\u2026 Verse 25-26: \u201cBefore the mountains were piled up and before the hills, I was born\u2014before he made the world and its fields or even the first dust of the earth.\u201d The narrative continues, describing wisdom\u2019s existence before the formation of the mountains, hills, and the very earth itself. Wisdom predates the physical world, highlighting its timeless and preeminent nature. Pause\u2026 Verse 27-28: \u201cI was there when he established the heavens, when he drew the horizon on the oceans.

This portrayal underscores wisdom\u2019s integral role in the orchestration of the cosmos.

And when he marked off the earth\u2019s foundations, I was the architect at his side. I was his constant delight, rejoicing always in his presence.\u201d These verses culminate in the image of wisdom as the architect by the Creator\u2019s side during the establishment of the earth\u2019s foundations and the setting of the seas\u2019 boundaries. Wisdom is described as the constant delight of the Creator, rejoicing always in His presence. This vividly portrays wisdom\u2019s intimate connection with the divine and its pivotal role in the grand tapestry of creation.
