Proverbs: Recommendations & Principles to Remember

Recommendations:
1. Read one chapter of Proverbs per day according to the date of the month.

Observations:
1. The applicability of Proverbs is not limited to a previous dispensation.
2. Proverbs provides practical wisdom for practical issues in daily living. It is a neglected resource for skillful living.
3. Take opportunity to disciple/mentor young people, using the book of Proverbs.
4. Proverbs gives particular wisdom for just and righteous leadership and discernment regarding injustice in all contexts of life.
5. Remember that the subject of a proverb may be figurative to a greater principle. Discover that principle and consider practical ways it applies in current life situations.
