How Are Wisdom and Honey Connected?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know wisdom is honey to the soul. In Jesus’s name, amen.
Perhaps you have a favorite memory of the taste of honey. On a freshly baked biscuit? All by itself?
In Proverb 24:13-14 (ESV) wisdom and honey form a bond.
“My son, eat honey, for it is good,
and the drippings of the honeycomb are sweet to your taste.
Know that wisdom is such to your soul;
if you find it, there will be a future,
and your hope will not be cut off.”
Have you given the search for and acquisition of wisdom the importance it deserves?
Note the words, “If you find it.”
This implies there are those who search but never find wisdom.
Don’t be one who searches and never finds wisdom. God’s Word, the Bible, contains wisdom. Search for wisdom there. Finding it will be sweet.
