Learning

These are the wise sayings of Solomon…A manual for living, for learning what's right and just and fair; To teach the inexperienced the ropes and give our young people a grasp on reality. There's something here also for seasoned men and women

Start with God—the first step in learning is bowing down to God; only fools thumb their noses at such wisdom and learning.

The wise in heart are called prudent, understanding, and knowing, and winsome speech increases learning [in both speaker and listener].

Wise men and women are always learning, always listening for fresh insights.

Jesus said, "Don't bicker among yourselves over me. You're not in charge here. The Father who sent me is in charge. He draws people to me—that's the only way you'll ever come. Only then do I do my work, putting people together, setting them on their feet, ready for the End. This is what the prophets meant when they wrote, 'And then they will all be personally taught by God.' Anyone who has spent any time at all listening to the Father, really listening and therefore learning, comes to me to be taught personally—to see it with his own eyes, hear it with his own ears, from me, since I have it firsthand from the Father. No one has seen the Father except the One who has his Being alongside the Father—and you can see me.

Proverbs 1:1 Proverbs 1:7 Proverbs 16:21 Proverbs 18:15 John 6:43

Knowing God is not only seeing His works but also learning His ways.
