July 9 Scripture Verse for
Today
Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.
(Proverbs 9:9)
One
can tell how wise a person is by the way he receives instruction. Those who are wise
will love instruction. As a sponge soaks up water, those who are wise will soak up instruction and want
more. They crave knowledge and learn with great pleasure. They seek to know experiences
of wise men and will listen and learn from others. On the other hand, reproof a scorner,
and he will hate you. He despises instruction and wisdom and turns a deaf eat to all who would share their
knowledge with him. In his own mind he knows more that all others around him, so none dare tell him what
to do.
How do you receive instruction? ~
