TOPIC :  WISDOM FOR LIVING A BETTER LIFE

TEXT: "How much better to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver"(Proverbs 16:16).

God has planned a better life for us. And wisdom is our access key to that better life.

People all over the world are always looking for the better items, better health services, better service delivery etc. Politicians all over the world win elections by promising a 'better' life for their people. We examine, we ponder and finally make a choice based on what we believe is better. I've have never heard anybody saying 'this one is worse, so I will take it'. Everybody wants a better life  but not everyone gets it because not everyone connects to the  wisdom to make it happen.

The book of proverbs is full of comparisons that points us toward the right pathway in life, showing us what's better for us. So its not strange to find statements saying 'this is better than that'. In the book of proverbs chapter 16, we read its better to get wisdom than gold or silver(vs 16).: better to be humble among the poor than to be proud among the wealthy (v 19): better to control our temper than to rule a city (v32). Some have the ability to be both wise and wealthy, but when faced with choice between the two, Proverbs says wisdom is the better alternative. Living the better life begin when we allow the word of God to shape our thinking and guide our choices. We will always be shown the way to the better life.

The path to the life that God has planned for you is available for you for the taking. It can be a reality when we begin to think better thoughts based on the word of God. Welcome to a better life!
