Reading the Book of Proverbs

Proverbs, with 31 chapters, is a book that fits well into a monthly reading program.  You can read one chapter each day of the month, with minor adjustment and at the end of the year you will have read it twelve times!

Some sections are made up of paragraphs of instruction in spiritual wisdom and good judgment.  We all need that!  Much of the book contains a listing of brief, insightful illustrations of single practical truths.  The divine proverbs are so clearly illustrated, we cannot argue with them!

Let’s hear one:  “A merry heart does good, like medicine, but a broken spirit dries the bones” (Proverbs 17:22).

Today is September 4th.  Why don’t you start with Proverbs 4 today and just keep going!
