Description
Pearls from Proverbs is a devotional book featuring a selection of 60 outstanding biblical proverbs, each accompanied by a brief biblical and practical reflection.
Someone once said that life is like a coin: you can spend it any way you want, but you can spend it only once. We could also compare it to a journey; there are many routes we can take to reach the same destination. Some are ideal, while others only take us farther away and delay our arrival.
If only there was an instruction manual for life or a map to guide us in the right direction… Wait a second… we do have that manual and that map. It’s called the Bible, the Word of God. In it, the Lord gives us hundreds of pieces of advice, guidance and warnings with the sole purpose that we may enjoy a plenty life.
We can all agree that living life isn’t easy. We need guidance and wisdom to live it well.
The book of Proverbs, in the Bible, contains hundreds of short and simple sayings about how to live wisely.
These proverbs are more than wise sayings like those found in most cultures. Their foundation is the reverence for God and obedience to his will.
Proverbs cover nearly every important area of life: childhood, maturity, social justice, wise speech, work, marriage, sexuality, and money.
Pearls from Proverbs
From this wealth of knowledge and wisdom, I found it good to select sixty proverbs, or “pearls”, that I considered most relevant, giving each a practical application to help us in our daily lives.
I hope that in every page of this book you will find the encouragement, counsel, and guidance you need to make your life a more pleasant “journey” and an “investment” that leads you to enjoy the treasures of heaven.
