Proverbs 2:1,5 - "My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee; ... Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God."  This is not just to sons, but to us as part of being a child of God.  Do we understand what God is trying to show us?  If not, what is taking the place of God's Word in our hearts? - Phil Dann

Proverbs 3:7 - "Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil." Too often, we think our ideas are the best and only way there is. Solomon here admonishes us to take our focus off of how smart we think we are, and focus on fearing the Lord and running from evil. That's some wise counsel. No question, a truly wise man will heed this advice. - Brian Boots
