Wisdom Begins with God – Proverbs 1:7–9; 2:1–5; 3:5–7

How do we keep God at the center of all we do?

The fear — or reverence — of the Lord is not fearfulness but the foundation of a meaningful, purposeful life.

Growing up, I often heard the elders in church say,

“God is the head of my life.”

At the time, I thought I understood what that meant. But as I grew older, I realized it’s one thing to say it, and another thing to live it. Keeping God at the center requires daily surrender — it means giving Him the first word and the final say in every decision.
