One of the most annoying types of people is a know-it-all, a person who has a dogmatic opinion about everything, is closed to anything new, resents discipline, and refuses to learn. Solomon calls this kind of person a fool. Don’t be a know-it-all. Instead, be open to the advice of others, especially those who know you well and can give valuable insight and counsel. Learn how to learn from others, Remember, only God knows it all.In this age of information, knowledge is plentiful, but wisdom is scarce. Wisdom means far more than simply knowing a lot. It is a basic attitude that affects every aspect of life. The foundation of knowledge is to fear the Lord---to honor and respect God, to live in awe of his power, and to obey his Word. Faith in God should be the controlling principle for your understanding of the world, your attitudes, and your actions. Trust in God---he will make you truly wise.--- Life Application Study Bible notesPRAYERDear Heavenly Father, Thank you for teaching us that knowledge without fear of You is empty, ineffectual and fruitless.Teach us to fear You and revere You as there is no wiser and greater being than You.Grant us Your wisdom and instruction as we worship You in awe of You with a humble and devoted heart.Help me think with clarity and act wisely each and every day by Your wisdom.In Jesus’ name,Amen
