[S] Job 28:28 --
28"And to man He said, 'Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom;
And to depart from evil is understanding.'"
[O] Job covers all the possible places and ways to attain wisdom in this chapter but concludes with this verse that "fear of the Lord" is the only way to get that. No money or precious gems of this world can bring me wisdom. To Job, God's wisdom is the key to living out his life because nothing on earth -- as he had the luxury of attaining many things of this world by the way he knows well what they are -- could satisfy.
[A] What is my irreducible minimum in my life to live out a Godly life? If it is wisdom like Job, then my basic posture should be to fear the Lord from the moment I wake up to the time I go to sleep.
[P] Dear Father, teach me to fear You such that Your wisdom will never leave me. In Jesus' name. Amen.
