Psalm 111:10 (NKJV)
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom
A good understanding have all those who do His cammandments.
His praise endures forever.
Comment fom Life Application Bible:
The only way to become truly wise is to fear (revere) God. Too often people want to skip this step, thinking they can become wise by life experience and ecademic knowledge alone. But if we do not acknowledge God as the source of wisdom, then our foundation for making wise decisions is shaky, and we are prone to mistakes and foolish choices.
My comment:
I just read about a man in the latest Times Magazine, who is a Governor, previously a Attorney General of America, who had been poised for 2012 US president candidate, having to resign due to sexual indiscretion. Look at him, I was sad for him because he has all the ingredients to be great. Alas! his public life is terminated, disgraced because of the lack of the fear of the Lord.
