Proverbs 9:9-11 - "9 Give instruction to a wise man and he will be still wiser,
Teach a righteous man and he will increase his learning.
10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
11 For by me your days will be multiplied,
And years of life will be added to you."
Where to begin? Well - fear (respect) the Lord! What does that mean for you? For me, each day is an opportunity to understand better how to obey God. Do obey or don't obey. There is no fence upon which to sit.
