walking through Proverbs....
Finding again.... 
the surprise of a different message
every time I read it
Solomon speaking of wisdom says;
Pv 1:22  “How long, O simple ones, will you love being simple? 
    How long will scoffers delight in their scoffing 
          and fools hate knowledge?
23  If you turn at my reproof, 
    behold, I will pour out my spirit to you; 
          I will make my words known to you.
Long before 
the Spirit was poured out at Pentecost
after Christ's ascension
God spoke of pouring out His spirit
making wise the simple
Giving Kingdom wisdom and authority
to those who
repented
responded
returned
to their Maker
their Lord
And yet
they didn't....
Until Christ came and made a way
our spirits
continued to choose
OUR own way
'To be like God' - without God.... as Satan told the woman  ref Gen 3:5
Lord,
Thank You for making a way
for me
to 'get over myself'
to submit to You
and receive
Your Spirit.
That I might 
understand Your words...
That I might
Live.
Thank You.
