PROLOGUE TO DAILY PROVERBS:
There is a Proverb for EVERY day of the Month. Do you want wisdom. It is found here!
“Joyful is the person who finds wisdom, the one who gains understanding.For wisdom is more profitable than silver, and her wages are better than gold.Wisdom is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her.She offers you long life in her right hand, and riches and honor in her left.She will guide you down delightful paths; all her ways are satisfying.Wisdom is a tree of life to those who embrace her; happy are those who hold her tightly.” – Proverbs 3:13-18.
Translation used for these daily Proverb Bible Verses will be:
New Living Translation (NLT)

When my children were little, we had “wisdom searches” during our devotional times. I would show them a picture I had drawn illustrating one of the Proverbs in our daily reading, and then we’d read through the chapter of the day. When I got to the verse that went with the picture, they’d call out “That’s it!” (If they were paying attention, which they usually were)
This method was not my invention, but we enjoyed our daily treasure hunts. ☺️❤️

  Great story from experience. Proverbs was the first Book I would send my kids too when they were old enough to seek the Lord on their own! 😉 ❤
