Lesson 1.6 – Psalms and Wisdom Literature
Teaching Passages: Psalm 1, Proverbs 1:7-10, 2:6-8
Memory Passages: Prov. 3:5-6, Psalms 94:11-12
Ever heard these?
"Hot Tootsie rolls don't bounce."
"Never get involved in a land war in Asia."
"As a ring of gold in a swine's snout, so is the lovely woman who lacks discretion."

It seems like everybody these days thinks they're wise and they're not shy about telling you what they think. As we continue our tour of Bible in Trek we come to Psalms and Wisdom Literature this week. Can you imagine the Bible without Psalms or the poignant (if not piggy) reminder above from Proverbs 11:22?
The bottom line is we are all foolish compared to the Lord. We need His Wisdom and Truth to make it through this life. FYI, we will be pointing to Moms and Dads as sources and examples of God's Wisdom (based on God's Word, of course) - no pressure!
May you open your life to the Lord's Wisdom so you can pour it into your kids and others around you!
In His Name,
Pastor Allen
