Subject: Wisdom

Proverbs 8:1-7 "Listen as wisdom calls out! Hear as understanding raises her voice!  She stands on the hilltop and at the crossroads.  At the entrance to the city, at the city gates, she cries aloud,  I call to you, to all of you! I am raising my voice to all people.  How naive you are! Let me give you common sense. O foolish ones, let me give you understanding.  Listen to me! For I have excellent things to tell you.  Everything I say is right,  for I speak the truth and hate every kind of deception." 

S- scripture: Proverbs 8:1-7

O- observation
Wisdom is looking for us. What a thought.

A- application:
The reason I choose this topic is because so many times I have struggled with a problem and instead of searching for an answer, I try and fix what ever it may be on my own.  This passage says that wisdom is looking for me.  I will try and find wisdom in Gods word from now on instead of
trying to fix it myself.

P- prayer:
Lord help us today for find your Godly wisdom. You are our source for wisdom. In Jesus name, amen.
