The greatest gift
The greatest gift a young man can seek is a wife. (Pro 5:18-19) She will balance him, console him, encourage him and keep him from the path of death. (Pro 7:22-27) The greatest blessing for an old man is his wife. She knows him as well as he knows himself. She advises him, admonishes him, ministers to him, and satisfies him with deep fellowship. Young men, the secret to godly living is a godly wife. Old man, the key to endurance is a steadfast mate. Lord, thank you for my wife of twenty-six years!

The wise never admit it
Solomon’s highest value was wisdom. Wisdom begins with the fear of the Lord, but another key is“teachability.” The most foolish thing one can do is allow his pride to prevent him from learning. The wise person admits that he does not know and is eager to learn (Pro 10:8,17). The wise implement a system of constant learning. A wise person never feels like he has achieved wisdom and can afford to be unteachable. Are you still learning? Do you have a system of discipline in place?
