Reflection

Take some time to read through these passages in Proverbs: Proverbs 1:1-7, Proverbs 2:1-15, Proverbs 3:13-15, Proverbs 8:1-11, Proverbs 10:1, Proverbs 14:1-2, Proverbs 15:1, Proverbs 22:17-18, Proverbs 24:3-7

  1. What are some key thoughts about wisdom that stand out to you?

  2. What is the context of some of the surrounding verses? What application of wisdom most resonates to you in this season?

  3. How have you fallen into demonic, or worldly thinking?

Assess the voices you go to most regularly.

  1. Do those voices promote wisdom from above, or wisdom from below?

  2. What changes could you make in your life to turn away from these earthly counselors to find biblical counselors?

Read Matthew 11:28-30.

  1. How do these verses provide an avenue for hope?

  2. Who can you share these verses with this week?
