Proverbs 31:1-9
What great wisdom for life is available to us here! King Lemuel writes lessons learned from his mother. Clearly, her relationship with God produced helpful guidance for many people. We learn that selfishness brings harm to the people in our lives and to ourselves. Sexual sin and alcohol abuse are dangerous traps. We are compelled to speak up for those who are in need of justice. We have an opportunity to be helpful. God’s love moves us in this direction.
