Proverbs 1 ~ right, just and fair

Buckalew Elementary, The Woodlands

Proverbs 1

1 The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel:
2 for attaining wisdom and discipline;

for understanding words of insight;
3 for acquiring a disciplined and prudent life,

doing what is right and just and fair;
4 for giving prudence to the simple,

knowledge and discretion to the young-
5 let the wise listen and add to their learning,

and let the discerning get guidance-
6 for understanding proverbs and parables,

the sayings and riddles of the wise.

7 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge,

but fools despise wisdom and discipline.

8 Listen, my son, to your father's instruction

and do not forsake your mother's teaching.
9 They will be a garland to grace your head

and a chain to adorn your neck.

It's a good week to continue to pray for our children (& parents) to have the Lord present in their classes, car/bus trips, school activities. We ask for our children to nurture others & be nurtured. We pray for their circumstances to draw them to the Lord and to draw others. Father God, in the name of your son, Jesus Christ, we ask your blessing upon these things, now and in the school year to come. So be it, Amen.
